I know they were, that was the point of the thread!

Though where the 20-30% drop is? Looks like 10% at the moment, although I think we will hit 1.2 vs $.

Ok, I got carried away, closer to 15%, but lets just call it 1985 levels.

I think we're heading for parity against the $ and euro.

Nah that guy never posted anything useful.

Admin?

No never......

Right. No, not reversed (yet ), although they regretted it pretty much instantly, following the global correction in Jan/Feb. I don't think they'll want to get caught out like that again. There is some institutional memory, although not an awful lot.

It depends how good lunch was!

I totally disagree with you there, not saying that I agree with everything that he posts.

Anyway my ass hurts from brexit. Lost cash (about 10-15%). Had plans, and some of them wont realise now. Hence my rant^_^
Brexiters target EU for their misery , I target brexiters. Fair game.

Sorry, I was referring to the previous US rate rise that caused the $ to strengthen. Can't remember if it was reversed though?

Quoted so diseasex can see it. I might be childish and do this with all of jb's comments.

It's difficult to avoid making this personal when you're essentially spamming the forum. When you're not posting antisemitic content, you're creating fifty threads on Brexit and posting about the woes of Brexit in all your responses, regardless of topic. It's very tedious.

+1 therefore nominated for the 2016 CUK Tedious Chunt of the Year Award and boy is there some competition

FTFY

I am dirty.

I'd expect dovish minutes from the Fed later, and that was pre-Brexit. There won't be rate rises for a long time now (IMO), even with a bounce back in jobs on Friday. They've revealed an increasingly outward looking mandate in recent months (during and post the Feb crash) w/r to financial stability, despite the US being a relatively self-contained (consumer-driven) economy. For the latter reason, there is a chance of what you suggest; if (for example) Trump wins and decides to replace Yellen with a more hawkish Republican (highly unlikely, and such a move would be unprecedented), but it seems more likely that rates won't rise for a considerable period, probably beyond the next recession.

nope you talk with sense, sometimes.

I feel dirty.
