Christmas Tree 3997 Posted November 16, 2017 Author Share Posted November 16, 2017 More good Brexit News as ratings agency srandard and poor upgraded the outlook for British banks with regard to Brexit. Elsewhere, JP Morgan said that a free trade agreement covering financial services would prove even better for banks than staying in the EU. Sent from my IPhone using tapatalk (St. Petersburg).

An agreement that we may or may not get. As long as the bankers are okay though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meenzer 13982 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 For all it's not why the Polski Sklep-haters voted out, I suppose it's reassuring that there might still be some taxpayers left in the country once all this is done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayvin 4949 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 Balance of power is shifting now anyway IMO, with or without banking centralised in NY and London.

Then you have to consider the second layer of financial legislation (EU style) that the money markets need like a hole in the head (Visa a vie no fucker wants to move settlement to Frankfurt). As we start to move away from cheap energy business costs are about to rise especially in the EU (with its Greening legislation). If Voodoo economics doesn't continue and the money printing its gonna be Walking Dead all over the place.

Was talking more about geopolitical clout and influence than just banking. All the EU has to do is federalise and it'll have blown the doors off the US hegemony. Banking is only a small part of this, but the decline of London and NY in this sense is a microcosm of the wider trend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Park Life 70 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 (edited) The key to everything now is cheap energy and the EU spends all its waking hours making energy more expensive. /Clueless The next war will be all about who controls the last big tranche of gas and oil - who can sell it and who has pipeline access. It's what this Syria/Russia/ISIS/Qatar/Saudi thing is all about...It's what Ukraine was all about and its what the upcoming Lebanon/Iran thing will be all about.

Rayvin 4949 Posted November 16, 2017 Share Posted November 16, 2017 You think? I think there's a fair chance the next war could be triggered simply by diplomatic abnormalities at the moment. Having said that, before Trump was on the scene my money was on water shortages in the Far East. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, before Trump was on the scene my money was on water shortages in the Far East. SA aggressive posture started after Kushner and then Trump visited. The money Russia needs to be able to defend itself relies on Saudi/UAE not getting an angle on the new gas pipelines/America not shipping gas. Qatar is sharing possibly the largest field in the world with Iran hence it got set upon. The Golan heights is about water and gas that you're right about...Israel wants to develop it along with Genie oil (the very same that trigger the war on Syria after Assad turned then down).
