Sealbash Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 How does majority deserve caps when it was 51%? That would infer almost half the population was against Brexit - only those with the mentality of a 13 year-old got carried away by the facebook hype, helped along by meddling Russians and lying idiots like Boris the UK Trump.... Those with brains voted against it, so the only logical conclusion is there are slightly more dumb people in the UK than intelligent... Once Brexit is cancelled the Pound will revert back to 50, which is still ridiculously low against the manipulated Baht. That bubble will burst soon as well and then we could be back to 70 again. Everyone's guess is equally valid...How has the baht been manipulated?Sent from my iPhone using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there is no general election / no second-referendum to get in the way, I really see the likelihood of a 'hard' brexit being ... hard to avoid ..... it will take likely 5 to 7 years after that to go through the entirety of trade negotiations for some sort trade agreement. Yes, the economy will adjust ... but I don't see any sunshine in the short-term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StevieAus Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Complaining about getting 39 baht to the pound would love to get that, I think we are getting about 22 baht to the Aussie dollar down from 28/ 30 a few years ago and we are not involved in Brexit.

Predictions are what they are. Simple thoughts of overpaid "analysts" that get a 10% pay raise if they are right and a 5% pay raise even if they are wrong.

gwynt Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Today the pound is strengthening against US$ and Baht? only marginally, when they finally leave the confines of the EU it will recover, my prediction for what it's worth.

shaurene Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Once these government traitors are gone and we are out the EU the UK economy will start to take off and a new government run by the people for the people and send illegal immigrants back to where they came from, or give them free tickets to Germany, France or any of the other countries that are in the EU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brickbat Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Another gfc of bigger proportions on the horizon and then there will be a reset. The world is borrowed to the hilt , and Thais don’t understand simple economics. Borrowings are massive. I know a Thai who has just bought her second property within 6 months , Loan to Value ratio 90%. Bank lent 90% of purchase price. Unsustainable. The old guard is back to rule. The loot’s being repatriated out to invest overseas by the mega rich. Unless anyone can see any other reason. Australia forcing its currency lower to stimulate the economy. So who is right?

Denim Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Look on the bright side. I bough a lot of money over when the pound was 74. Bought a house , a car , a motorcycle etc , all as cheap as chips. Now we are ready to retire to the UK we can sell it all and convert the baht into pounds and make a pile of money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knocker33 Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 A quote from Forbes about economy forecasters. Only lawyers are the butt of more jokes than are economists. A recent report by Sweden's central bank, Sveriges Riksbank, drills down into the dismal track record of the dismal science with what the authors claim is uniquely comprehensive scope.

Must of been on the same plane as you i did exactly the same thing. Bought a vigo for roughly £11k kept it for 10 years sold it for 440k baht. Basically got £11k back after 10 years if i returned to the uk today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonnyF Posted June 6, 2019 Share Posted June 6, 2019 Who predicted this? Sounds like the sort of doomsday nonsense Mark Carney or George Osbourne would come out with. I wonder if this will happen before or after the 800,000 job losses, the emergency budget, the 30% drop in house prices etc. Once the sore losers stop blocking Brexit and we see that the sky didn't fall, the pound will start making gains.
