UK GDP growth up way more than expectations, retail sales soaring, wages soaring, house prices up, low G7 debt, record exports, pretty much full employment, FTSE at an all-time high, LLOY at 50p...

The Brexit dividend is starting to shine thru.

UK GDP grew +2% YoY in Q3 2022. Wages are currently growing +6%. PSN surprises today to the upside with its trading update. Things are nowhere near as bad as we think.

UK economy is in pretty good shape, given inflation, covid, half the public sector on strike, and endless Remainer hysteria. Everyone has a job and wages are soaring. Wouldn't be a surprise to see PSN at £20 and FTSE100 at 9000 by the end of 2023.

Good post, TFE.

The fruits of Brexit are quietly starting to blossom.

LLOY up, big FTSE100 up, GDP up, house prices up, low G7 debt, low unemployment, everyone who wants one has a job, wages soaring, record EU exports, EU deal on the horizon. Once the inflation and fuel bump is in the rear-view mirror, the UK can look ahead to the roaring 20s.

Yes, the FTSE100 is starting to see a Brexit boost. Confidence and the pound are rallying. This year will top 8000 for the first time ever.

Lol.

Around 80-95% of all UK NHS GPs today work only part-time. Many UK hospitals still communicate by fax machine. No surprise 7 million people (the population of Switzerland) are waiting to see a doc.

Speculation that Harry Kane's penalty crashed the Cornwall satellites...

..."I am aware of one "director" who when asked why he wanted the money (getting 50k for a taxi business it he setup 2 weeks earlier.......) said it was for his garden"...

Lol.

Ask anyone who worked in the classic-car auctions during Covid...

Before loans = nothing sold under £50k...
After loans = everything sold under £50k in minutes :-)

Lol.

FTSE100 this century fell -6% between 2000 and 2016.
FTSE100 since Brexit has risen +23% between 2016 and 2023.
A new cup-and-handle bull pattern his forming.

Despite bitter Remainer hysteria and an ongoing attempted coup against democracy, and an attempted Maoist coup ongoing against democracy in the public sector, there is a new Brexit era quietly emerging... The silent majority are (still) winning ;-)

..."Its obvious the company are not happy about the mcap"...

Lol.

Looks like LLOY and the FTSE are finally starting to reap the Brexit dividend.

The FTSE 100 is up +23% since Brexit.

Lol.

UK GDP grew +1% MoM between Sep-Oct 2022.
UK grew +2% YoY in Q3 2022.

UK economy is growing. Fastest in the G7 for 2 years in a row.

As stated many times before -- almost all the "negative" soundbites are "forecasts". Project Fear by bitter Remainers, desperate to talk down the UK's future prospects.

We are one weird country :-(

A quarter-century of relentless shareprice decline is not a good look. Aldi is currently growing at 20-30%, while Tesco is struggling to hit 5% growth. Past and present look grim.

UK GDP grew +2% YoY in Q3 2022 (latest stats).

..."that coupled with a reasonable dividend makes it a safe albeit unexciting place to park cash"

Err, the TSCO share price has plunged -20% in the past 1 year, -30% in 4 years, -5% in 24 years, and the share price today in 2023 is still *lower* than it was in the previous century...

In no way whatsoever, can TSCO be described as a "safe" place to park investment cash.

UK had the fastest-growing economy in the G7 in 2022. For the second year in a row. UK has the second-lowest debt in the entire global G7. Everyone who wants one has a job. The UK has (effectively) zero unemployment. UK wages are growing at their strongest level this century, at +6%. UK exports to the EU have soared to a record high. EU airports have opened special passport channels for UK citizens that enable Brits to breeze thru faster than ever before. The Queen's passing was the second-most watched event on all of planet Earth last year (after Ukraine-Russia).

Brexit is doing just fine.

Get well soon, Gazzle.

Sounds like yet another Project Fear "forecast" by Remainers who can't get over what happened nearly a decade ago...

UK GDP grew +2% YoY in Q3 2022.
Close to the bullish US, which grew +3% YoY in the same quarter.

The "financial gymnastics" on this forum are quite staggering...

Tesco global retailer share is down.
Tesco UK retailer share is down.
Tesco share price is down.
A lot!

UK is going post-retail.

The UK retail industry is in longterm structural decline. The UK no longer has the management skills, finance skills or govt support to fend off its better-managed overseas rivals.

From Matalan to Morrisons to Tesco, the same UK / global trend is being seen over and over again... down.
