24 June 2016 – Post Brexit, Humpty Dumpty had a big fall!
We are now post Brexit and it is for real! The UK referendum has come out in favour of exiting the European Union. Stockmarkets in the EU registered big falls of over 10%. At one point, trading in the S&P 500 e-mini futures were halted as it collapsed from 2100+ to 1999! All the other indices suffered a similar fate. Global market plunged! Vix was up as high as 47% at its high.
Financial sector was hardest hit which was led by decline in the european and US banks and insurance stocks. British pound and the Euro plunged as George Soros predicted as the likely outcome if Brexit was confirmed. US dollar surged.
Contagion is likely to spread to other EU countries. More EU countries are now demanding a referendum of their own and some countries could well follow the UK exit. Humpty Dumpty had a big fall.
The immediate outcome of Brexit is that holidays in Europe and the UK just got cheaper!
