 Of inhuman bondage: the bond market has policymakers in its grip - Cover Story Washington Monthly - Find Articles
So Druckenmiller began telling his Republican friends in Congress - and as a man who had given $250,000 to the Republican National Committee in 1994 he had a lot of friends - that the financial markets would tolerate any means to the end of balancing the budget, including a default.
Druckenmiller had a stake in getting his way, and he was willing to push the Republicans to the brink of default - or even over the edge - to do it.
Druckenmiller may be an extreme - perhaps the most extreme - example of how one speculator can unhinge the market for bonds (or stocks, or currencies, or futures, or wherever he chooses to lay his bets) and thus make Washington pay attention.

Again according to press reports, Stanley Druckenmiller, who mainly runs Quantum these days, made highly leveraged bets that the U.S. dollar would plunge against foreign currencies.
Druckenmiller had made a seemingly strong case that the dollar was overvalued; but as his boss' books have insisted ad nauseam, markets are not rational and often go in the "wrong" direction.
So there's a pretty good case that markets are overpricing the dollar, that one of these days they will realize their mistake, and that on that day the dollar will plunge (and Druckenmiller will look smart again).

Stanley Druckenmiller from Duquesne Capital (and formerly the portfolio manager of Soros' Quantum Fund) said that he was extremely negative about the "market in general" and "housing in particular." He is concerned that consumer spending is being supported by refinancing and home equity loans, and predicted a "major recession" in 2006 or 2007.
David Einhorn of Greenlight Capital disagreed with Druckenmiller's view on the housing market, arguing that people think that the housing market is more cyclical than it really is. His pick was M.D.C. Holdings (MDC), a finance and homebuilding company that trades at 7x trailing earnings.
Carl Icahn agreed with Druckenmiller's view on housing, but warned that the "bubble could get a lot bigger first." Icahn argued that there's money to be made in oil stocks, pointing to Kerr McGee (KMG), which he recently shook up.
