  • Large hedge funds shorting euro: WSJ

    25 Feb 2010

    LOS ANGELES (MarketWatch) -- Large hedge funds are betting on a drop in the euro, expecting that the European currency will fall to parity with the U.S. dollar, according to a Wall Street Journal report late Thursday. The report cited unidentified people quoting comments from "all-star hedge-fund managers" representing the likes of SAC Capital Advisors LP and Soros Fund Management LLC at a recent New York gathering. Some of those managers said the euro, which traded at $1.51 in December but was at $1.36 Thursday amid concerns about Greek sovereign debt and other issues, could soon fall to $1.00. However, the report added that "few traders expect the value of the euro to totally collapse, the way the British pound did in 1992."Market Pulse Stories are Rapid-fire, short news bursts on stocks and markets as they move.
