RE : Gold

Do you see it spiking at $1360 this yr ?

UTT,

EU system is corrupt from Brussels down to smallest Olive tree in Cyprus . EU folk are mega misguided .

Can't believe French Cabbages put their faith in Macron , when he warned them before hand that he was going to screw them . It just goes to show the simplistic thought process of your average EU worshshiper.

French yellow vests , obviously didn't have the forward guidance , ahead of the curve foresight , that Brexiteers have , otherwise they'd be the first wanting to leave EU .

As for the Irish PM , nowt worse than a dumb Fukc , attempting to look vaguely intelligent . He's screwed his people , in more ways than one , and now needs to find way out without loosing face . The plucker is Gormless .

God help the Irish . They'll never run out of Doc leaves .

Ireland dragging EU into Recession whilst our Economy now forecast to grow 1.2% . The cabbages will wake up eventually. They should have all learnt to speak English !!

Thanks for posting this extract :-

"We believe the rhetoric over Brexit has risen a level today, and we therefore find it rather odd that Sterling is trading higher against a number of currencies. This only confirms that the market is looking through the noise and remains quietly confident a deal will ultimately be struck."

As I interpret this comment , the MMs that e-mail each other seeking safety in numbers , driving peaks and troughs , are avid readers of Motley Fool .

We all need Sterling to drop in 50 days , to make a success of Brexit , hard to believe mega paid Yuppies still live in hope a deal will transpire . With all the info available to them !!! UNBELIEVABLE !!!

Just goes to show , that as lowly PI , we can have more foresight than the Pros .

RE : Hell

That comment will come back to haunt him in the near future , when the EU hanger on nations wake up to the fact Euro distribution is weighted in Germany's favour .

Macron is trying desperately to acquire some German crumbs , before the next downturn . In Macrons case it will be too late .

I thought he was a Sikh , but if he's a Muslim , it Defo explains his misguided logic , being brainwashed every Friday .

No wonder he believes in a one Party State . Daren't think what he'd do to us if he was in power , never mind our Females !!

He's got some cheek coming and posting on a Libertarian BB .

A camelion that has shed it's camouflage.

Snige, I was not being made redundant at HSBC. They wanted to make cutbacks in staff . I volunteered (knock on)to take the place of someone who was being made redundant. Despite still being needed, morally they accepted my request as I didn't need money, and that person although of similar age had a young family. I left (retired) when I was 45."

It's called having humanity and setting an example .

Upon Brexit , currency markets are going to sell Sterling , I don't need to explain the market implications of such a move on a knowledgeable fella like yourself .

I am sorry to hear about last months predicament , and perhaps it explains your lack of posting over the last 2 yrs .

Best wishes !!!!

Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel has said the Brexit deal brokered between the European Union and Prime Minister Theresa May is a “diplomatic piece of art”.
Mrs Merkel, speaking in Brussels, said: “it’s a historic day, which triggers very ambivalent feelings … it is tragic that the UK is leaving the EU now after 45 years, but we have to, of course, respect the vote of the British people.”

https://www.independent.ie/world-news/angela-merkel-describes-brexit-deal-as-a-diplomatic-piece-of-art-37563394.html

The above, coming from a Federal State that is about to lose 9% of its export market , by pricing itself out of UK is very magnanimous . Remainders should take a leaf out of Angela's book when it comes to Democracy.

"U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May insists she’s “determined” to deliver Brexit “on time,” on March 29, despite ministers in her own Cabinet suggesting a delay could be needed. She promised to return to Brussels with renewed commitment and “new ideas” to deliver a deal.

Key Developments:

May wrote in the Sunday Telegraph, saying even Labour’s Jeremy Corbyn agrees the Brexit deal needs changes to the contentious Irish border backstop.
Downing Street denied the Conservatives are planning for a June 6 election, after a report in the Mail on Sunday suggests preparations are under way."

We can all now relax and enjoy our Sunday !

Good morning !

"The impact of global car emissions regulations and trade wars will hit sales and profits at BMW.

A profit warning by the German carmaker sent its shares falling by €4.24 to €79.14 on the Frankfurt stock exchange yesterday, extending a drop since the end of last week to nearly 9 per cent.

In an unscheduled trading statement, it said that an already “challenging year” had worsened."

Naturally in some people's warped mind , car manufacturing issues are exclusively Brexit related

22 Jan 2019 · The unemployment rate in the UK fell to 4 percent in the three months to November 2018, its lowest

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-45181079

3 Jul 2018 · The figures show the seasonally-adjusted unemployment rate for men was 5.1 per cent, down from 5.2 per cent in May and from 7.2 per cent in June 2017, and 5.2 per cent for woman, down from 5.9 per cent a year ago. The rate of youth unemployment in June was 11.4 per cent, down from 11.8 per cent in May.

Last time ever Ireland will have unemployment at 5% or lower . Eire like their national rugby team are getting used to being bent over by U.K.

It must be hard being Irish these days

Pint of Wackamole Rules !!

What a come back !!

RE : 15'46

"John46 is a bear and has us done in the 40s!

For my part as a hard Brexit is history and it’ll be Mays deal or a second referendum in which Brexit is rejected I see us reaching dizzy heights soon!"

I see you're in mischief mode again today .

Read today Italy is in a technical Recession. This evenings BBC news stated U.K. Manufacturing is stagnant , intoning Brexit is to blame , the real reason being EU economy slowing down to nil growth , hence less demand for Global goods .

Upon Brexit , you well know yourself , Sterling will drop , maintaining our competitiveness , fewer holidays to MED , enhancing EU slowdown .

EU slowdown will have a bearing on Lloy share price , my 40p might seem more realistic than your 95p .

I don't have to repeat what it's going to do to Eire , as you've minimised your exposure by dumping Birg .

Tomorrow evening I shall enjoy the Ireland /England Rugby match , in the pub , surrounded by my long time Irish Acquaintances , that put you to shame . Couldn't give two hoots who wins , but may the best team win .

"You know what John the biggest brexit challenges are going to present themselves around producing sufficient green energy required to run this manufacturing boom"

Absolutely freakish you mentioned this . Presently working my way through hoops on a new green venture .

My daughter asked me out of innocence what could I do to save the Polar Bears . Explained my thought process and her reply , " make it happen dad ! " .

I assume you're in Tenerife , enjoy your break , will be there in 12 days .

When will you learn ?

"Barclays to move £170bn to Dublin over no-deal Brexit fears."

Barc is minimising their EU junk exposure on the U.K. Market . Upon a hard Brexit in 58 days and Sterlings anticipated devaluation this Barc exposure could approach £200 BN .

Very clever of Barc , dump exposure on Eire , EU can bail them out this time .

"49 billion lol hardly an incentive. Do you guys realize that it's peanuts compared to the 5 billion a week the UK currently exports to the EU? The EU couldn't care less about it and even compared to the UK 1.8 trillion gdp its a drop in the ocean."

Exactly , on 30/3/'19. There'll be a 2 way trade with EU , without tariffs , just a normal trading day , they're our cousins .It's in nobody's interest to enforce tariffs .

We only have to wait 58 days for tariff free trade with EU , without having to follow their ORDERS . Sterlings devaluation will show us for the genius we are .

NOBEL PRIZE FOR ECONOMICS WILL GO TO UK IN '20 , MASSIVE TEAM EFFORT .

"Sorry to disappoint Fleccy, don’t pop any pills, not of any description!"

Hence misguided logic !!!!

59 days to go . Over in a jiffy.
