I see the FTSE reached yet another all time high today. Think how much higher it would be without that bloody Brexit!

 


We have now sunk to a depth at which the restatement of the obvious is the first duty of intelligent men. [Orwell]

FTSE going up, pound going down - which strata of society is that going to help.

Is that what you call it?

Perhaps you could elevate the level of debate a little and then I might join in.

Nice of you to be so curdial in your (non) responses.

The weak pound is not all bad news is it.

The weak pound keeps driving up the value of my investments in emerging markets most of which are valued in $.

I hope Theresa May ends the week with 2 fingers up to the EU and Jean Claude Juncker.... apparently the currency traders are hanging on her every word and anything that she says that indicates a hard Brexit drives the £ down against the $.

Nice....

The 250 is a better indicator, and also nearing all time highs, the 100 has companies that have zero UK earnings.

The pound has been lower than it is now without record highs on the FTSE being reached. Companies being successful helps everyone.

Union officials don't want to hear that though......

Well anyone with a pension fund should benefit - which is most I'd have thought.
