TopicGoddamn the UK's polls still don't close for another almost 3 hours

from an asset pricing perspective this result is extremely positive for UK assets, stocks are going to rally massively, GBP strengthened immediately

hedge funds all were betting on this result because Boris winning was the obvious outcome, long GBPUSD was a super super crowded trade because it was such a good trade

on market open we are going to see big moves up in stocks (specifically UK domestic companies) and the GBP is going to be strong, likely above 1.34-1.35

financially, corbyn would have been a disaster for asset prices in the UK, so from that perspective this result is certainly a more favourable outcome (politics/ideology aside)

if the results end up being in line with the exit polls, this is also a stunning rejection by the British population of the hard left brand of labour party politics that have influenced the party over the past decade

Try actually answering my question

Tell me a better analogy

a slave owner and a slave is a much more effective analogy here. slave owners are directly responsible for the misery of slaves.

I didnt say YOU speciacally said all of that, but that is the topic theme is it not??

no, it is not. knowledge on how to build wealth does not even factor in to the equation.

So the wealthy are reaponsible for any problems we face?

alot of hardliners will now be thinking its either this deal or a referendum which is not appealing


Sure, but it needs more than just the support of the hardliners. Are the non-hardliners going to prefer this deal over a referendum? Given that we haven't seen the deal, we can't really say.

hardliners won't risk a ref

There are certainly better ways of investing than solely being long equities but real estate isn't always the right answer

You have to consider you'll be extremely levered long real estate if you buy a house and if that's not the optimal asset allocation for your net worth I certainly would consider something else, and if real estate is still exposure you want at a smaller size there are alternatives to buying a house

You can make just as much money off a recession as an economic boom

this is true and not true, but more not true

generally in recessions, people with a lot of money are the only ones that can effectively make the trades required to profit from a recesssion

most do not make money, and are not capable of making money through no fault of there own, and recessions by definition are value destructive
