I guess no Brexit was the 2016 Global Equity bull market catalyst all along!
The pound tapped $1.49 this morning and that’s one mother of a move in the context of where GBP/USD has been for the last 6 months – on my immediate-term signal, that’s pricing in a triple-no-exit! I’m going into this with no FX position (sorry, can’t build my research firm on coin tosses) other than long Gold (risk range 1253-1306/oz).
Meanwhile, the FTSE is up +1.4% to 6349 with a refreshed immediate-term risk range of 5819-6403 so the asymmetry from here is to the downside; same thing with the DAX on a risk range of 9370-10331 – if they leave, many Global Equity markets will resume their draw-downs (and crashes) from their 2015 cycle peaks – if they remain, they probably sell on the news anyway.
Here's the unequivocally bearish data that doesn't go away post today's Brexit vote:
And imagine what happens to these stock market chasers if they vote to leave? No blaming machines...
