Porty is in cuckoo land. When he takes his medication, hopefully he will be cured. But he is still a danger on the WWW.

[portside1] 25/10/2016 08:59

no not financials ,they will be fine the real exporters of goods and once we are out of the rotten eu we can make our own taxes which is not illegal .

Portside's view of exit is wider than the EU. ;))

[dr biotech] 24/10/2016 15:38

Portside, your plan to give money to the exporters is moronic.

Our biggest export is financial services. We lose passporting, they won't be able to sell in the EU. What would be the point of giving banks a handout? It won't help trade.

If you want to give a handout to those that make physical goods, then it's illegal state aid and against WTO rules, thus ruining the trade we have with non-EU countries. Perhaps you think we should adopt the communist model of state industries?

Barclays: A Big Earnings Beat Is On The Way $BCS

[johnwise] 24/10/2016 08:36

Barclays will reveal more PPI pain when it follows on Thursday, with Investec banking expert Ian Gordon expecting another £500m charge.

Analysts are pencilling in a 9% rise in pre-tax profits to £1.3bn from Barclays for the three months to September as the group’s investment banking arm looks set for a decent quarter.

Its Wall Street counterparts have already reported sharply higher earnings thanks to buoyant trading in fixed income, currencies and commodities since the UK’s vote to quit the EU.

All this talk of relocating out of London or UK is just publicity seeking stunt....how many time has HSBC done that? ....we are considering relocating to the Far East blah blah blah....just dish the story out to media...lets see what the reaction is....

[the walter committee] 23/10/2016 18:07

We agree completely John, very wise. It's either wicked scaremongering by the pro EU lobby or the 'Short the banks rabble', or both.

(although we are happy to do that anyway lol)

"Banks will start relocating out of London" ....More hot air from the bank bosses trying to manipulate Brexit negotiations don't believe a word of it, it might cost them more to operate after Brexit but the costs of relocating and operating in Paris or Germany are more cost prohibitive.

And if they went to Europe,their incomes would fall of a cliff when they have to pay transaction tax, plus the UK acted as a safety net when the banks were struggling, Merkel has said she would not rescue Deutsch bank, the basket case EU may not be here in a few years time, it's all hot air, bankers may be incompetent,but they are not mad.

Britain’s biggest banks 'will start relocating out of London early next year' amid growing fears of hard Brexit

[portside1] 23/10/2016 14:49

remember if your bank is not registered in the uk your money up to 75k is not guaranted

Barclays held a $1 million bash for 55 hedge funds

"It doesn’t appear that any manager with less than roughly $350 million was invited to the bash. It’s unclear how much business Barclays was able to siphon away from Goldman Sachs ."
