Global Currency Volatility Enduring Worst Night Since Financial Crisis

These crosses are fucking insane. I realize this is all theatre now. Nothing matters until the results are final. The leave vs remain vote tallies are just about 50-50 now, so it’s too early to count chickens. Nonetheless, the fluctuations are just bizaare.

The pound is off by 3.1% v the dollar.

Dollar is higher vs yuan by 0.25% and 1.1% vs the euro.

The yen is up 1.4% vs the dollar and Bitcoin is higher by 4.2%.

Gold is up more than 1% and crude is off by 2%.

Dow futures are down 243 and the FTSE is indicating -5.1%.

Oh, and bonds are soaring.

    The BBC has never been so interesting,except when the olde Top Gear used to be on. Shame on Scotland for voting remain. They should return to prima nocta as punishment.

    There is little liquidity. Only fools see opportunity trading each tick with every vote tally.
