I have been posting about that tw*t for two or three years maxk. A really nasty piece of work. He claims to be an ardent support of democracy and his only wish is for a United Peaceful Europe.

Do I believe any of that?

No!

So both BARC & DB both struggling to make money from Investment Banking.

Reatail Banking is the game in play. Lets hope RBS's stronger focus on that helps the numbers tomorrow.

Not since the days of the Cavaliers and Roundheads has the Country been so divided.

Now as then. there is no even handed view. Either one believes that the UK should

retain close social and economic ties with the EU, with all that involves, or one does

not.

Dominic Grieve: An even handed view.

[dbesim1] 25/10/2017 23:14

Ex-attorney general Dominic Grieve has said (leading attempts to re-shape the PM’s Brexit plans) that Britain may have to extend its EU membership beyond March 2019 to allow time for a final deal to be properly ratified by parliament.




Meanwhile a study has suggested that economic output in Scotland could fall by 30 billion pounds over five years if Theresa May fails to secure a Brexit deal.



These are not stable times and the future stability of the market and stock exchange is pendent on their choices. Whether they’re making the right decisions or not is not in voter’s hands. It’s pending to see.

Bar,
I'll PM you.

[barmiddleton] 25/10/2017 20:38

What's up CI? You heard from Sig Lit? I haven't received anything recently.

Further to my post this morning when I expressed the view that the markets are likely to fall, if London is to continue to retreat from 7500 it requires that the £ should rise.

The excuse for that being a rate rise in November.

The timing for RBS investors is unfortunate, but if the numbers are Ok, it may weather the correction, should one occur, buoyed up by the higher earnings from higher interest rates and lower US fine from the higher cable rate.

Mining shares may be most impacted given their rise over the last year.

A higher £ against the Euro could help supermarkets too.

[chinese investor] 25/10/2017 18:07

Great progress is being made !

It is important we get regular updates from Signature !

Sterling remains strong against the dollar, now up nearly 1% at $1.3261. Connor Campbell, financial analyst at Spreadex, said:

The pound continued to romp higher this Wednesday, as investors indulged in a hawkish view of the morning’s UK third quarter GDP reading.

Despite a better than expected pair of durable goods orders figures from the US – the core reading rose to 0.7%, while the non-core number hit 2.2% – cable widened its gains as the day went on.

All this put the FTSE in a miserable mood, with the UK index dropping 50 points to fall to its lowest price in nearly 3 weeks. With the likelihood of a November rate hike from the BoE only increasing following the (slightly) better than forecast third quarter growth reading – leaving sterling in line for another boost – the UK index may struggle to muster the momentum required to climb back, and stay, above 7500 in the coming weeks.

Perhaps Mogg is the “enemy of the economy”.

Not that he needs care, he’ll be stinking rich whatever happens.

Would be good if all 650 MPs had real skin-in-the-game..jeopardy should make for smarter decisions.

[grahamite2] 25/10/2017 14:55

Leaving with no deal is the best that can realistically be hoped for and certainly better than leaving in name only, which is what the remoaners have been angling for from the moment the referendum result was known.

[blusteradjuster] 25/10/2017 14:53

Apart from all those things not covered by WTO..

[maxk] 25/10/2017 14:50

If there is no deal before the end of March 2019, it all goes to WTO rules, which would not be especially bad for us.
