Brexit uncertainty costing the UK £600 million a week on 06:55 - Apr 3 with 4274 views | Darth_Koont | This is what we're dealing with and choosing between. Basically, no-deal is insanity and far too punitive for the UK to ever have worked as a negotiating tactic. And remaining is an absolute no-brainer. "In a no-deal Brexit, a scenario Goldman sees a 15 percent chance of, UK GDP would fall by 5.5 percent and a “substantial” global confidence shock would see sterling depreciate by 17 percent. European countries would be most exposed to this scenario, the economists estimated, and could see output losses of around 1 percent of real GDP. A Brexit transition deal would reverse part of Britain’s economic output lag, with limited foreign spill-overs, they said, estimating UK GDP would grow by a cumulative 1.75 percent and sterling would appreciate by 6 percent. A scenario in which Britain remains in the EU after all would see it fully recoup Brexit-related output costs and drive a rebound in business confidence while sterling would appreciate by 10 percent." | |

But you'd trust certain politicians who say everything is going to be great even with a no-deal?!! These figures (and the relative impact of the different scenarios) are in the ballpark of others I've seen. Let's see the figures you're working with. | |

Good point. The banking crisis wasn't predicted so never trust any of the banking experts ever again. However do trust all racists in hi-viz | |

They almost certainly have no financial positions on the outcome! | |

“While a ‘deal’ would certainly be positive for the UK economy, only ‘no deal’ would trigger substantial spill-over effects, with European countries being most exposed,” they added." | |

Falling out of a trade deal with European countries would tend to suggest they'd be most affected, yes. Come on, mate- have a fink about it! | |

It’s not saying Europe is more exposed than us but other countries around the world. | |

Like ours, some European politicians are also posturing about no deal for domestic consumption. | |

There's an argument that they'll do better in the long-term out of no deal. Lots of business and investment would leave Britain or bypass it to be inside the bigger market. | |

From what little I've seen about this, we're substantially more exposed than the other EU countries. Which seems logical although I've no idea if wholly accurate. https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/02/07/world/europe/brexit-impact-on-eur | |

Goldman did know it was coming, which is why they were so massively hedged against a lot of their clients positions from 2006 onwards. Of course they knew. | |

Blankfein admitted afterwards they never saw it coming. So what you're saying is they lied then and did see it coming. My point precisely never trust a banker they often lie, if they can say anything however fake if it makes them a bigger bonus they will say it. | | | |

The UK is more exposed because it is very reliant on EU companies for so many things Logistics, transport, energy, fuel etc. are daily requirements the UK has supplied by EU companies & this is a situation that cannot be easily or quickly changed. Strangely enough it is the tories that got us to this position in the first place & should have taken that into account before the referendum | | | |

So...he admitted afterwards he never saw it coming, but never trust a banker? Got it. Here's what you do with these large financial institutions, and politicians, and indeed people in general; you look at what they do/did, not what they say/said. | |
