Why not just buy GBP after the exit?

Buy a lot of GBP after exit with money made from shorts. Sounds like a proper strategy

britain based banks
the main reason London was such a financial powerhouse is because it was much easier to deposit and mangage funds in the UK than other EU countries, but once your money was "british" it was "european"
There only two scenarios now
a) to keep e full european licence, british banks will have to align with EU guidelines, losing their main advantage of accessing the common market the easy way
b) UK doesn't align with EU guidelines, opts for "european tax haven" strategy, in which case they'll never be able to compete without bona fide tax havens, unless they want to get assblasted by EU trade taxes, aka trade taxes on a solid 60-70% of teir foreign trade. This is not a drill, it's litteraly the plan for hardliners

t.Work in finance headhunting, the only thing preventing the bloodbath is remaining uncertainty about the outcome, but a shitload of infrastructures are been moved out quietly, and 80% of UK based finance workers have their resume out there and can't wait to jump ship. No is the time to buy the dip, UK traders are cheap as fuck right now

> X has been Y for centuries, so Y is totally unrelated to current context

if it is today it's hardly because of a superior navy, colonies, or the anglican relationship to money, is it, Einstein?

Here is the breakdown.

Hard brexit = GBP loses value = buy SP500 or FTSE!00
Countries earning in GBP poorly. These are typically smaller domestic uk companies in FTSE250. Companies earning in foreign currency do well. These are the international companies - FTSE100.or SP500

Softer brexit = GBP rally = buy FTSE250.
FTSE250 consists of the 101-350th largest companies in the uk. These earn in GBP usually and will rally hard on a deal.

Place your bets accordingly
