You do know the US rating was lowered about 4-5 years ago yes? And it had ZERO impact on bond yields.
You do know that rating agencies had Lehman and Bear as solid A+ before they went under right?
You do know how central banks manipulate markets with "liquidity injections" - do you know what the term liquidity even implies?
You do know that market prices fluctuate and "trading headlines" is never going to be a long term winning strategy ?
You do know those "several large companies" were banks who wanted to follow through their Brexit fear mongering and have already made a U-Turn and will not move a single employee ?
I mean , i could go on , but i think youre out of your depth on this entire topic.

"noone knows anything"

LOL im well aware how our monetary systme operates without a BBC Guide For Finance Dummies thank.

Did you even listen to my first rebuttal :
do not link to sources that either
a) have a track record of being very wrong about EVERYTHING theyre meant to be "experts" at
or
b) are sociopaths whose every other word is a lie (Soros makes money out of fooling people)


You bought into Project Fear. Its ok , theres no shame in being fooled - most people are fooled by a lot more than Brexit.

So what did you buy into?

I mean its not EU currency that hit rock-bottom bro.

Even if I went with your suggestion that everyone is wrong.. guess what, no more investing in UK, because everyone includes investors.

Dow dropped 500+ points the first day Obama was elected, 300+ the 2nd time he was elected. America is not noticeably worse off (unless you're a right wing crazy.) I wouldn't put too much stock in any of the short term dips.

Also, prognostication is not exactly a forte of economics. In the rare cases it can be useful, you need all of:

1) Similar situations from the past
2) Good data from said situations
3) Ability to isolate variables

There are way too many variables in this situation, and there are exactly zero situations where a country has voted to leave a union in the manner GB looks like they will, and if there are there isn't sufficient data from those occasions.

I believe this could go either way for them in the long run, but GB needs some good leadership to get through this (which isn't looking good at the moment.) Brexit isn't even binding so who knows if they even leave.

Yea, somehow it doesn't seem like they were doing that bad when still solid part of the EU, right though.

Guess we'll see the full impact the coming decade.

[You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] Yes , this is an absolute end of times. No more "investing".
Look , you're new to finance , markets and economics , i can tell.
The best piece of advice i can give you is learn to think for yourself
Ignore "experts" , ignore mass media , ignore hedge fund managers. And yes , ignore me if you follow the path of self-learning.
Use your own powers of investigation , common sense and knowledge through historical understanding of monetary finance and draw your own conclusions , not those who wish to propaganda you. I have no skin in the game of fooling you - those quasi State institutions do.
But as you will.

Have you written a book on how to become a billionaire yet?

If I had 1 pound for every (poor) self-proclaimed finance specialist, I'd still be a lot less rich then I would have been last monday.

Hilarious.
