Graham, yes, I bought high. But I liked the divi and still do. I also hope there won't be a crash, but I will keep hold of tw anyway. I bought intending to hold for the very long term. I don't even check the sp very often, as I was too busy loosing money on sirius minerals.

Yes I do. I bought in 2 years ago.

Calisto, do you think the UK is the eu's most important market? Its significant yes, but they are not dependent on us to buy their ****.
We on the other hand import almost half our food from abroad, most of it from the EU.

The companies who make cars here are already leaving. And they are not British cars.
The EU is entering a period of slow down after strong growth, and in case you didn't notice, the UK and the rest of the world are sitting in the same boat. It has nothing to do with the workings of the EU itself.

Unfortunately such is the effect of negative equity my friend. Its the whole reason why banks want a deposit in the first place. People are already loosing jobs as companies go bust or move to the EU. How will they pay a highly geared mortgage?

Not sure why us having to import more is any good leverage. We need that stuff and if it gets expensive where are we going to get it from? The EU will just find new markets to sell to, so they won't suffer too badly.

Owls, if house prices crash, people who just bought there houses on say 80 or 90% mortgage might easily slip into negative equity. They might be asked to stump up more cash, and if they can't they could be repossesed. I bought my house 4 years ago, and I am also concerned about this.

Mickey, you haven't mentioned a single valid reason why we should leave? The vote was marginal enough, and based on propaganda and a bunsh of leaver lies.

Brexit will be fantastic for first time buyers - after house prices have crashed.

Or not as the case may be, as an extension to A50 will be forced by law. Good!!!

Sorry, but the EU has 70 free trade agreements. We will have next to none. So on that basis, its us who will carry the can. The EU wont suffer much if we leave.

Is this going up because of the news articles?
How will this help us to raise non-dilutive finance?

This looks like a scheme to draw in more suckers like me into the race to the bottom.

What do you mean can the raise be done higher? Sxx has always raised at a substantial discount. Between x and y, the gone for the lowest figure.

Correct malkis, one day soon we will get an rns. It will say we will be significantly diluted, or in administration. I look forward to that one.

I think this is seen as a fairly save bet. In the scheme of things the sp is nearly constant with an awesome divi. No more so as the ratail arm is gone. I shall be topping up on this income giant as funds allow.

No hope

So the UK's 49.5 is the lowest of all EU countries basically. Tells a story doesnt it.

Didnt have as much room to fall as it was already low.
UK will suffer badly after brexit. But the EU has trade deals in place.

What do british PMI's look like?
Looks like the UK will be the sick man of europe again like we were before joining the EU.

Agree, this seems very low now. I think I might go for another top up. I think the UK will be building more houses in the next few years, rather than less.

Not currently invested, but tempted at this price. In my opinion TED has a loyal high income following, and for that reason a DEB scenario is unlikely.
Any opinions?
