I've heard a thing or two. What do you reckon UK gilts yields will be after Brexit?

0.01% might look like a good deal when you have to pay 0.25% to keep your money in the bank....

Another German Bund auction failed as €4bn offer in 10y Bunds received only €3.7bn bids at record low yield of 0.01%

No one wants to buy German debt now....
