George Soros, whose wager against the British pound in 1992 netted him a $1 billion windfall, has found another profitable, albeit smaller, short bet in the U.K.
The British arm of the 90-year-old investor’s Soros Fund Management held a 0.7% short interest in Trainline Plc as of March 25, according to U.K. regulatory filings.
