I keep seeing stuff like this but I don't understand the motivation. What would a rival to the US have to gain by bankrupting a handfull of US hedge funds?
- rapsey 6y agoThe buck does not stop at the hedge funds. You are bankrupting from bottom to top. Owing 100k to a bank is your problem. Owing 1 billion to a bank is the banks problem. It can turn into a systemic crash like event as seen in 2008.
- overcast 6y agoBecause bankrupting these funds has a negative effect on the ENTIRE market. Look at what's being setup up now. Volatility is cranked, the S&P shaved off a few %, the dollar is pumping. Things are NOT looking good.
