from fresh air:
Hedge fund manager Kyle Bass had made a fortune betting against the subprime mortgage market when it collapsed in 2008. And now Bass is set to make lots more — from a Greek default.

Bass' story is chronicled in Michael Lewis' latest book, Boomerang: The Meltdown Tour, which tells the stories of the fiscal recklessness in both Europe and the U.S. that led to the current debt crisis.

Reply to @Accipiter: I think there are a lot of managers who stand to profit from Europe. I believe David Einhorn also has sovereign CDS. I'm looking forward to reading the Lewis book.
