Even one of the foreign sourced CNBC segments on the streaming site was positive and realistic about Brexit -- thanks to one of the old hands. In general CNBC is not only anti-Trump and pro-Hitlery, no surprise there, but it's also been heavily scare-tactic anti-Brexit.

Sorry, one more comment -- Fairfax Global Markets CEO Paul Dietrich, on this vid, is positive on Brexit, and realistic that it will pass. (The negative drumbeat in the fake free press of Europe notwithstanding).

Some of the financial wizards I’ve talked to (people that get paid to know such things) say that if it passes (and I hope it does) there will be some roil in the markets but that it will be short lived.

These same people are saying that we are not going into another recession, pointing out signs most people are missing (usally idiots on the internet who don’t know what they’re talking about, conspiracy nuts, zero hedge or CNBC). This opinion is not very popular (I will no doubt be attacked for even posting this reply).

The EU Bureaucracy has been warring on the cultural heritages--the multi-generational social achievements--of the nations of Europe. One may certainly hope--and indeed pray--that the nations of Great Britain will not be persuaded to abandon their proud heritages by the threat of a temporary market sell-off. There is far more at stake here, than the immediate effect on the stock market.

The Brexit vote is largely about sovereignty -- BUT as the talking head in the vid notes, even from an economic perspective, 25 percent of the EU trade is with the UK, and most of the UK's trade is with entities (like the US, Canada, etc) outside the EU. Those remaining in the EU will NOT accept some kind of retributive sour-grapes type blocking tactics from Merkel or anyone else, and that's reality. And if Merkel doesn't want to see the rest of the EU states drift off, she'll shut her great big fat KGB-trained East German piehole.

The Swiss just withdrew their application for joining the EU; Norway, which is the largest oil supplier to thee EU other than Russia and Middle East, remains outside the EU; and the British voted to NOT drop the £ for the € -- and analogous scare tactics were used at that time as well. Same goes for Cameron's refusal to put the City (the old Roman / medieval core of London) banking centers under EU control -- scare tactics, claims that all those banks would pull up and move to Europe (not even one of them did so)...

Unfettered, suicidal immigration may be the number one issue in the Brexit vote, and this is despite years of hateful rhetoric directed toward everyone not in favor of national suicide, like the formerly-tax-evading comedian Jimmy Carr (and never will you see a less P.C. act than his, unless you see Frankie Boyle's, and I believe FB once wrote material for Carr; both of them are fall on the floor hilarious, but I despise their politics), and of course the BeholdJihad-Broadcasting-Corp.

We're in the same struggle -- and either Trump wins and we win, or it's not going to end in November. Period.

I’ll be surprised if the margin is even close — 70 percent think the UK gubmint has been lying about everything to do with it, which mitigates against turnout in favor of “Remain”.

Can you expound on these positive signs? I’m curious (and not going to hammer you!) ...

Manufacturing (believe it or not, check the ISM trends), wage growth is starting to turn, core orders are up, business real estate is booming, consumer confidence is steadily rising. Vehicle sales are through the roof.

Long-term rates are higher than short-term rates. Recessions usually happen when that relationship reverses. There aree a couple of other of these relationships they mentioned but I of course forgot.

Another thing to watch out for, go google recession. Watch the kinds of names that come out crying the end is coming. Zero Hedge, CNBC and hosts of other charlatans.

These people are idiots. They feed the 24 hour news cycle. If they told the truth nobody would pay attention to their crap so it’s a never ending cycle of chicken little.
