I'm very happy to hear that, but how does that negate my point that if remainers had not stymied us leaving the EU that sterling wouldn't have risen anyway.

SheungWan Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 Sterling in retreat again, but now a slightly new twist emphasis. Suggested that markets are looking towards a more longer term dysfunctionality in UK politics, whatever happens in the immediate future and this does not bode well for Sterling. In particular not a positive message for UK expats planning ahead, at least those particularly reliant on sterling incomes.Sent from my SM-N935F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheungWan Posted September 26, 2019 Share Posted September 26, 2019 At least you are now taking on board that no-deal is an option now.No-deal has always been an option. What I have always argued is that it is not the only option and never has been. However, keeping to the thread, risk of no-deal has an impact on Sterling. But now continued political dysfunction is now seen to negatively impact on future Sterling movement.

Nasty piece of work hiding behind a supercilious toff 'charm'. A clever Enoch who knows to clear steer of racism. Whilst readily accepting the racist vote with his dog whistles and opportunism. Those of us who have done so or are thinking of moving assets out of Sterling are, in effect, shorting Sterling. Prudent and requiring a longer perspective than maybe previously addressed.

Can’t get enough pounds out of the post office account to pay for your retirement visa? So 66 million UK citizens should have to Remain shackled to the EU, all for your selfish exchange rate shortfalls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're beginning to sound just like my neighbour in Hua Hin - he's convinced the lottery numbers are somehow directly linked to the odometer on his brothers car.

Not good for Sterling achieving a stable bounce. So the longer term risk is to the downside.

It's also magical thinking when someone thinks that the prospects for brexit don't effect the value of the pound. Maybe you think it's your brother's-in-law odometer that's the cause of its ups and downs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say the magical thinking is being done when one believes that the prospects for Brexit only affect the value of the pound in one direction. If that was the case and the pound drops each time Brexit comes closer, the pound would strengthen as soon a Brexit seems unlikely. But it doesn't. It appears, there are other factors. Which was my point... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was my point... Who says the prospects for brexit only affect the pound in one direction? When Brexit appears more likely, the pound drops. When it appears less likely it rises. It may fluctuate somewhat, but there is nothing since the Brexit referendum that has had an effect on the value of the pound like the Brexit issue. Nothing even comes close. Likening a connection between brexit and the value of pound to a superstitious belief is ludicrous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's what I wrote in reply to your post (that believing that Brexit only affected the pound in one direction would be the magical thinking you accuse others of): I'd say the magical thinking is being done when one believes that the prospects for Brexit only affect the value of the pound in one direction. Do you want me to help you find a reading comprehension training course or something? And who believes that the prospect for brexit only affect the pound in one direction? Certainly not opponents of brexit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In other words. "prospect" is neutral. The possibility can be high or low. High prospect: pound declines. Low prospect: pound rises. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
