The globalists versus the nationalists.
A good possibility. I bet that he is heavily invested in globalization.
DOW futures down 500, gold is up but not 30%. Bigger news is the rush to U.S. treasuries and the corresponding drop in yield.
Astonishing !
Politically he wanted the remain to win but that doesn’t mean he invested that way.
Good point. He has a reputation of investing against currencies. The Pound has lost a lot of value in the past day.
Good point
Scots would much rather share governance with the continent than Whitehall
They always have
Very good question!
I hope you find a definitive answer.
IMO, it shows that Mr Trump as a life.
really only since WWII
I’m a tremendous supporter of the US-UK alliance, but people are myopic about history (or simply don’t know it). The US and UK were never ‘allies’ until late in WWI, and even then it was an awkward and uneasy alliance, which reverted back to US neutrality in the 1920s and 30s. Only with Pearl Harbor and the US entrance into WWII did the warm close alliance that we all assume today really begin to develop.
Throughout the 19th century the US and Brits were fairly unfriendly competitors, and the Brits considered supporting the Confederacy in our Civil War. Ceertainly the USA never supported any of their wars of empire etc. We just ignored them when we weren’t competing on trade etc.
RULE BRITTANIA
Wouldn’t be the first time he crashed the pound.
Agreed.
It is good bet that by the time Scotland get to vote on joining the EU, that the EU will no longer exist.
Waiting for comment from Jo Cox
Nope, Sorus shorted this British Stocks and pound.
Reuters declared it to be fact .
Murdoch Left wing media too
The Daily Mail blasted the same talking points and push polls .
The polls were way off as usual but posters here lecture us about how the polls are so accurate and to shut and believe the misinformation talking points .
Fir three days !I was lectured her by the Berlin Pro Globalist - Uniparty astroturfer that I was spreading conspiracy theories and crazy for mocking and challenging these polls and their timing !
Funny how they are disappear when the CROW is ready to be served !
Europeans have to have some Nationalism in them still I hope.
Globalization will work in about ten thousand years.....our world is not in the right place now.
America is the world’s only hope in my opinion.
What is with Scotland? They voted to remain.
(Soros) ... Oh darn, well then which currency was he long if he was short the pound. Did he buy long puts on Brit stocks prior to the vote. Maybe he just shorted naked calls. How much money do think he made on the exit vote — maybe he can get some good plastic surgery with it, like a face transplant.
