I've always loved Druckenmiller because he says the complete opposite of what they teach you
"The few times that Soros has ever criticized me was when I was really right on a market and didn't maximize the opportunity."
Stanley Druckenmiller
"The few times that Soros has ever criticized me was when I was really right on a market and didn't maximize the opportunity."
Stanley Druckenmiller
"The first thing I heard when I got in the business was, 'Bulls make money, bears make money, and pigs get slaughtered.' I'm here to tell you I was a pig. And I strongly believe the only way to make long-term returns in our business that are superior is by being a pig."
"Earnings don't move the overall market; it's the Federal Reserve Board... focus on the central banks, and focus on the movement of liquidity... most people in the market are looking for earnings and conventional measures. It's liquidity that moves markets."
"Soros is the best loss taker I've ever seen. He doesn't care whether he wins or loses on a trade. If a trade doesn't work, he's confident enough about his ability to win on other trades that he can easily walk away from the position."
"If you're extremely confident in yourself, taking a loss doesn't bother you."
I used this one in my @IntelligentCM Annual Letter
