If we do it now we are at a disadvantage. We will wait for the markets to settle - appoint our negotiation team and do it then.

In other words: cherry picking. The same thing is accused of Switzerland.

Not me, why I should? What is my interesting that UK joins EU? I'm living in Switzerland and we are also not in EU. But ... we should all/both be in a Thing like EEA.

No we definitely shouldn't.

Oooh sorry missed that you are from US... of course than not. Of course in US it is still common that North will still use the south as slaves. The only difference to before is the Location of the meridian

I'm from the UK. Just don't think Freedom of Movement for people works when we don't have equal states. We need immigration yes but not on an un-checked scale. The common currency and other EU factors mean that more people from Italy say come to work in the UK than the other way round.

Yes yes, I see all these Problems also (and in Switzerland we feel this much more or at least equal than any other European Country; about 20%...). But still on my (very advanced) Age I see more chances if the European countries works together. I don't like EU but in my opinion an EEA is very ok.
And thank you that you have overlooked my inappropriate comment before.

The problem is it has to be all or nothing. The Euro doesnt work with a lot of the poorer countries. To make it work they have to create one single Country - they won't do that.

Or, more likely, it was just the people who voted Remain that was searching this.

Most voted because "I like that bloke's rhetoric more than the other bloke's".
That's the problem with referenda: too many morons drag themselves out of their couches and vote.

I have no idea why I should enjoy this side effect

I suspect that despite losing more money as a total amount than you or I, this drop doesn't hurt Gates/Bezos/etc nearly as much as others who might have the same investments. For others this might represent an actually significant chunk of their retirement fund.
In what fashion might you "enjoy" this?
|
|
|
|
|
Well, they (in this case meaning Gates etc) didn't loose anything if they didn't sell their shears. And, ss you point out too, losing 5% of a billion is not going to force them on a diet or skip a vacation.
On a different note, it might not be such a good idea to invest in the stock marked now as the P/E is quite high[^] historically speaking.

Yeah, but if you have money, you'll buy up some "cheaper" stock, particularly the British pound, wait a few weeks for things to normalize (ok, maybe months), and rebound to their previous levels, and you'll have made probably 10% or more on your money in short order.
Or, if you were even smarter, you invested in gold before the vote, knowing that if England stayed in the EU, you wouldn't lose any money, and if it left, you'd make a killing, well, at least 9% as of future prices today compared to Wed.

Yeah, their portfolio dropped in value to what it was mid-May (as did mine.)

Very creative - and I probably played most of those games at some point...

Griff, found a deal for AOMEI on one of the sites I use. Last time I posted about something else I found there it was removed. As this is to get a free copy I might get away with it.
Find it here[^].
