 PROFILE
Central bank heads and prime ministers won't have George Soros to kick around anymore. His Soros Fund Management's perennially successful funds, including its Quota Fund and flagship Quantum Fund, will become more conservatively managed. They've historically based investments on macroeconomic trends such as monitoring a nation's economic health to bet against its currency: In 1992 Soros gained $1 billion worth of notoriety after investing against the British Pound. Soros has been knocked by Asian and Russian economic woes; the company has invested more heavily in tech stocks of late and been hammered for it. The company will manage a US-government fund that will invest in war-torn areas of southeastern Europe.
