Soros-isms.

Alex - Thanks for the link.

Here are three quotes from there that I thought people might enjoy.

"The prevailing wisdom is that markets are always right. I take the opposite position. I assume that markets are always wrong. Even if my assumption is occasionally wrong, I use it as a working hypothesis."

"When foreign brokers brought derivatives to Japanese financial institutions, it was like the white man bringing firewater to the Indians."

"Foreign investing usually involves boom/bust sequences. I have been in the foreign investment business from the beginning of my career. I have seen many cycles. And I concluded early on that foreign investors acting as a herd always prove to be wrong."
