Trump says he picks Bessent to be US treasury secretary

Любопытные детали из биографии героя:

Bessent worked for noted short seller Jim Chanos in the late 1980s and then joined Soros Fund Management, the famed macroeconomic investment firm of billionaire George Soros. He soon helped Soros and top deputy Stanley Druckenmiller on their most famous trade - shorting the British pound in 1992 and earning the firm more than $1 billion.
In 2015, Bessent raised $4.5 billion, including $2 billion from Soros, to launch Key Square Group, a hedge fund firm that bets on macroeconomic trends.

Впрочем, хедж фонд оказался так себе, и большинство инвесторов (включая Сороса) забрали деньги обратно. Фонд заработал с 2015 чуть больше 30%, при том что SPY вырос почти в 3 раза, на 180%
