Liberal billionaire George Soros drastically increased his shares in a handful of tech companies.....Soros made the large stock purchases during the second quarter through Soros Fund Management, the financier's New York City-based investment firm. The purchases include 159,200 shares in Facebook (valued at $31 million), 250,000 shares in Twitter (valued at $11 million), and 54,500 shares in Apple (valued at $10 million), Security and Exchange Commission filings show.....Soros additionally reported 12,400 shares in Alphabet, Google's parent company, valued at $14 million. However, the shares in Alphabet decreased by $12 million from the previous quarter. The bets are also in stark contrast to the mission of a coalition of progressive groups who received funding from Soros that are attempting to break up Facebook.

Freedom from Facebook, the coalition of liberal groups who want to break up the company, consists of the Open Markets Institute, MoveOn Civic Action, SumOfUs, and Citizens Against Monopolies—many of which have received funding from the billionaire.

It’s hard to manipulate things from hell, though, in fact impossible.

They do not want non-institutional (individual) investors. That share price keeps them out except for the very wealthy.

So he pays groups to bad mouth the companies and drive down the stocks, and then he goes out and buys the now cheaper stocks.

This different, this is manipulating the stock market so he can buy low and eventually sell high.
