He seems to know what he's talking about, he said the GBP/USD came back about 6% It just went up a bit so it can fall deeply again, here it is live:
-
To play devil's advocate, any US company eyeing up property just got a near 15% reduction before taking into account stamp duty etc. I think they'll be waiting for further price drops before making any purchase

Personally I think it's a very small amount of people voting leave that really understood the short to medium term negative impact on the economy. We debated this many times here, it was an emotional vote against immigration and the establishment, not many people thought "economy" when voted leave. We're all in this mess, we need to stick together and sort it out, but we're at the mercy of political games of both political parties. Delaying invoking article 50 is either another political play, where they hope to cancel the referendum, or a very stupid decision to wait and pass the dead cat to the next government. That's not the leadership we need now, sadly.

I don't think you seem to realise that the vote leave camp knew this would have a short to medium term negative impact on the economy? What you're saying or posting isn't news nor is it a surprise. A lot of people seem to underestimate the fact that "leavers" are looking to the future and to the prosperity that leaving The single EU market is likely to have on the UK. On a personal note I think it speaks volumes that the minority in the UK can't accept that a decision has been made and we should not accept it, knuckle down and move on... Oh, I have accepted it, just watching it unfolding

Speech was delivered. Osborne says Treasury made a series of predictions about impact on the economy and says there were a range of impacts but all of them "required an adjustment in the economy" (recession). He says he will work very hard to mitigate the impact and remind people of the strengths of the British economy. Meanwhile Japan is first international victim of our decision, investors are buying JPY and USD, as safeguard. http://www.marketwatch.com/story/japan-emerges-as-key-victim-in-fallout-from-brexit-2016-06-27 Markets opening in EU in a few minutes, let's hope for the best. Seatbelts on!

Figure of speech, as in long time ago.

Back in 1248?

Congrats Jeff and Melissa! Can't advise on wedding costs as mine was in Romania back in 1827...

For the exact reason above Markets and investors need political and economic stability, elections always bring uncertainty.
-
Nope. He needed to properly weight over the weekend what happened on Thursday and the small reaction of the markets on Friday. Is not random or coincidence they've chosen the result day to be on Friday, is usually a very quiet trading day, most traders go out early for drinks and dinners, having made lots of money over the week. Just spoke to a friend, senior trader, they've been working today, preparing for the next hours, they're already at work. I don't like the sound of that, hopefully it's not going to be bad tomorrow and Tuesday. Christine Lagarde from IMF just said that markets underestimated what happened and reacted very lightly on Friday...

So Asian markets are open, GBP keeps falling, but expect bigger fall in the morning once EU stock markets open. Osborne is due to release a statement to calm the markets in the morning, let's hope it helps
-
£?

Let's keep calm! Trouble is you're bringing more uncertainty, again. Here is why:
-
So "what's going to happen" then? Go on, tell us Meanwhile, let's be clear about this, we have enough uncertainty as it is

We have the solution!!! "Right. **** this. We're ALL up @*!# creek and we need a paddle. Now, not in three months. Fellow Remain voters: Enough already. Yes, we're all pi**ed off but navel gazing ain't gonna help. Not all 17 million Leave voters can possibly be racist northern pensioners without an O level to their name. Maybe they have a point about this quitting the EU thing? Maybe not. Whatever, we are where we are and no amount a whinging is gonna change that. Allegedly we're the intelligent ones, so get your thinking caps on. Leave voters. Well done. Good game. We hear you. Now you need to get stuck in to the aftermath and not just **** off back to Wetherspoons. (Just banter, twats!). And the first person to say they "want their country back" gets deported to ****ing Gibraltar. OK? Politicians. David. **** off. Shut the door behind you. Now. George. You may be a **** but you're our ****. Plus you know the passwords for our Junior Savers account. Get your calculator. Drop the face-like-a-slapped-ass routine. You're on. Boris. Sorry mate. That photo of you abseiling by your scrotum over the London Olympics while waving a Union Jack can't ever be un-taken. Plus, you'll never be able to appear on Question Time again without some sturdy Glaswegian nurse asking where the **** her 350 million quid is. Not only will she have a very good point, she'll be wearing a T shirt that shows you gurning in front of that ****ing bus! No captains hat for you I'm afraid. Theresa. You're in charge love. Get the biggest shoulder pads you've got. We need Ming The Merciless in drag and you'll scare the @*!# out of 'em. Nicola. Yep. Fair cop. You probably could get us on a technicality, as could London. But we ****ing love shortbread. And oil. And to be honest you're probably the best politician we've got, so we need you on side. Sort your lot out and we promise never to mention that Jimmy Krankie thing again (although it is pretty uncanny) and we'll make you a Dame once we're sorted. Bring Ruth Davidson. She kicks ass. Opposition party. We'll need one. Someone take Jeremy and John back to the British Legion Club where you found them. Take Nigel as well. Give back their sandals, buy them a pint, then go to Heathrow and collect David Milliband. **** it. Lets gets Ed Balls as well. He keeps George on his toes. I think he works on the lottery kiosk at Morrisons now? Oh. And Mark Carney. Give him a knighthood and tell him to keep that @*!# coming. We definitely need more of that good @*!#! Everyone set? Right. Hold the Easyjet. We're going to Brussels and this ain't no hen party. #weneedaplan"

How about Daniel Hannan for PM? Certainly a very eloquent speaker. Good vocabulary. https://www.facebook.com/ozpoliticallyincorrect/videos/vb.1641448376180621/1655630014762457/

I'm thinking to organise a referendum to see if I should still sell the GTR, although I've collected deposit for it. In the current circumstances, buying from USA doesn't seem smart anymore :cry: Bye bye C7??

Yeah, yeah!
