Brexit

Wow!! Watching Fox news now.

Why would you do that????
The financial information quality there is as short as the skirts of their anchors (lol)

You might want to try Bloomberg or BBC (if you can get them) for more factual financial implications.

Wow, they're calling it for "Leave" right now. It's over. Britain may be out of the European Union. :eek:

It won't happen overnight and there will be push backs and renegotiation, but for now, the Leaves have it.
 
Either way the Brits will always have Fish and chips, their GREAT Medical Care and Immigration System!
 
It was bizarre that most people were ignoring the polls (which had BREXIT slightly ahead to even or slightly behind) and instead were focused on the betting odds makers who had only a 10% chance of a BREXIT.

Regardless of what happens, and there are some big districts, including London area to still come in...it should be noted that Las Vegas made more people poor than rich.
Odds makers are rarely the right guys to follow, in the end the peoples voice is all that matters.
 
High drama for sure. Assuming the Bremain's seize the day, it makes for an interesting day tomorrow. If futures rise in a big way overnight is it a setup with a big gap opening followed by an after noon selloff as big money takes profits or does the market rise higher? While it would have be nice to be in today, I'm glad I sidestepped this one.

The futures are going bananas (up and down) as early results showed a small lead in the "Leave" vote. It was only 5 of over 330 areas scheduled to report but they expected those 5 areas to vote for "Remain".
 
Voting turnout was very high, I'm hearing, and that's a good sign for the "Remain" vote.

The futures are rising again after hours on the latest poll... 54% Remain, 46% Leave. They sure like to take surveys across the pond. :)
 
The most recent polls were very close (52% to 48% and 51% to 49%), both in favor of "remain", but they weren't exit polls. They were phone calls out to 5000 people.

This means they weren't necessarily voters, and I still think the more motivated voters are the "Leave" side and they may have been more likely to have gone out an voted in the rainy weather.

Everything is pointing to a close win for the "Remain" vote, but I am not overly confident that it will hold. And if it's too close to call on the first count, it may delay the results and uncertainty continues. I don't really have anything riding on this. It's just a thought based on everything I'm hearing. :blink:
 
Lack of Brexit Exit Polls:

"Regardless of who commissions an exit poll, results can’t be reported until after the polls close. Section 66 of the Representation of the People Act of 1983 bans the publication of any forecasts or predictions for elections before the polls are closed. People can say—or tweet, or Instagram—how they voted, but they cannot tally their friends’ votes and stick that on Facebook."
