To put that in perspective here are some of the biggest in history:
•John Paulson’s Bet Against Subprime Mortgages (2007): Paulson’s hedge fund earned approximately $4 billion by shorting subprime mortgages during the financial crisis.
•George Soros’ Shorting of the British Pound (1992): Soros profited about $1 billion by betting against the British pound, an event known as Black Wednesday.
•Jesse Livermore’s Shorting of the 1929 Market Crash: Livermore made around $100 million (equivalent to over $1.4 billion today) by shorting the market before the 1929 crash.
