Takeaway: Not the gloom and doom that many predicted, the FTSE 100 is up +14.6% since Britain’s E.U. referendum.

 

“In sharp contrast to the politicized-fear-mongering about Brexit, the British economy chugged along at +2.2% year-over-year growth in Q3. That was even better than the USA’s +1.7% year-over-year growth rate,” Hedgeye CEO Keith McCullough wrote recently. In other words, the U.K. economy is accelerating.

WHAT TO BUY...

We like Britain’s pound on the long side (especially against the euro).
