It is getting worse for DB. On Friday http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-10-17/deutsche-bank-pays-38-million-settle-silver-manipulation-lawsuit The only reason that DB is currently an ongoing concern on the expectation that the DOJ is going to drop its fine from $ 14 Billion to the region of $ 4 - 5 Billion. IMO this is not going to happen due to the massive amounts of lawsuits that DB have had to settle over the last 2 years. http://www.activistpost.com/2016/09/deutsche-bank-going-under-real-reason-germans-told-prepare-national-crisis.html Think Lehmans but only worse ? Understatement of the day. This will kill the euro completely and ultimately lead to the demise of the entire EZ. Contrary to the wisdom of those who doubt that this will happen, the UK will benefit enormously from this, providing that they can put a big enough buffer zone in place before the EZ collapses. Well SR it would seem that you are spot on with your predictions from todays news. Before those who start claiming it is an express story read it, the report was written by someone else who seems to know what he is on about. http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/722697/Deutsche-Bank-collapse-Germany-European-Union Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before those who start claiming it is an express story read it, the report was written by someone else who seems to know what he is on about. http://www.express.co.uk/news/world/722697/Deutsche-Bank-collapse-Germany-European-Union It's a report written by a management consultant which means very little, interestingly it doesn't say who commissioned the report and since such things are client confidential, I strongly suspect a self serving purpose! I say these things not because I want to try and invalidate the report or the article but to try and put it into context, I was a management consultant with the Big Four in the City for many years hence I do understand some of this picture at least. And since news of the report, details and substance of which are very light on the ground, is coming from the DE, I am even more suspicious of motive given they are the paper who is constantly going on and on about Deutsche and seem single handedly to be responsible for Rock's infatuation with the subject. My verdict, just another newspaper selling article designed to hook readers into the next chapter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loeilad Posted October 19, 2016 Share Posted October 19, 2016 (edited) 1 hour ago, Laughing Gravy said: Personally I always thought property was overpriced especially in London. I still don't feel that house prices will make houses more available as there just isn't enough. houses so prices are still inflated. I think where lots of people go wrong is they measure their wealth in the equity in a house which, as happened before can get 'whisked away.' No - house PRICES haven't changed - because of the pound being cheap it means that foreign investors will find it a lot cheaper to buy property in the UK - the avarage UK house buyer won't benefit - unless they are using a foreign currency. In fact in areas of the market that are attractive to non-sterling investors there could even be a price rise.

In the long run the Japanese investors lost a massive amount of their investment due to the changing nature of real estate and the related exchange rates.

Try looking at the fines that have been paid over the last 2 years. How much the share price has fallen over the last year. This is much, much more than the DOJ fine of $ 13 Billion.
