.

Italian banks are some of the worst in the world, they've got massive leverage problems and will need a bailout, Germany will end up paying up and that might be the nail in the coffin for Germany and it's EU relationship..... The real problem is Deutsche bank, it's a juggernaut compared to Italian banks.

British peanut? And you live in Euroland?

The EU would give its eye teeth to enjoy the growth the UK has had. It would even do that for the 'Forecast' lower UK growth. Its still many times more than the EU will see.

Your hatred of the UK is distorting whatever sense you had left. Because the Euro has dropped against the Dollar as well. The CAC40 and DAX have been way down on the FTSE100, 250 and 350 all at near 52 week highs.

Britain kept its 'peanut' while all around were shouting for us to join the Euro. And because of that we could free ourselves from the disaster zone that is the EU. The Euro is just another tool for the Elite and Unaccountables in the EU to fabricate their United States of Europe project. Like the flag, the anthem and the police force, foreign policy and how they inveigle themselves into the very fabric of member states. As we are finding with trade negotiators. They take away independent Nation's ability to think and act for themselves and remove that to the unelected centre. Well fuck that...

If you can't see what these bastards are up to then you are even more blind than stupid. Enjoy your Euroland negative growth, stagnant investment, 10% unemployment rate, 50% youth unemployment, permanent banking QE costing billions and a currency underpinned by one country - Germany. Because it will all fall apart very soon.

Maybe not in exchange rate but certainly in domestic purchase power. A EUR 20 note buys you more in the EUR countries than a GBP 20 note can buy in the UK

just to make it clear fpr you we are talking about the pound and the euro not a pound ..now show us where you can buy more euros for your British money today than 23rd june pre referendum .. so your british money is worht less then !!!!!!! and brexiters say the euro is doomed you cant even buy more of a doomed currency

"

.

Not to get involved in your spat but your getting a bit one sided on currency valuations.

There's many things that values a currency from inflation(which we might be expecting in the future) to trade deficits(less exports means less people need your currency) interest rates, public debt etc etc etc.

A lowering of the value of the pound might not be a bad thing if you do it for the right reasons.

To simply get involved in a spat about last month's value to today's really just means nothing!.

"What do people think is going to happen in Italy over the coming months given the Italian banking crisis and the EU ?

Its economy will follow the UK"s down the pan ...

lol, the UK's economy won't go down the pan and if the Italian banks collapse it could mean the end of the EU or at least the Euro

You not on planet earth at the moment ? or just avoiding the reality all around you ...

says a man who lives on the moon

Lets have a look the great British peanut is doing worse than the alleged doomed euro and you think the British peanut is performing well ..strange logic you have on planet zarg !!!!!!

British peanut? And you live in Euroland?

The EU would give its eye teeth to enjoy the growth the UK has had. It would even do that for the 'Forecast' lower UK growth. Its still many times more than the EU will see.

Your hatred of the UK is distorting whatever sense you had left. Because the Euro has dropped against the Dollar as well. The CAC40 and DAX have been way down on the FTSE100, 250 and 350 all at near 52 week highs.

Britain kept its 'peanut' while all around were shouting for us to join the Euro. And because of that we could free ourselves from the disaster zone that is the EU. The Euro is just another tool for the Elite and Unaccountables in the EU to fabricate their United States of Europe project. Like the flag, the anthem and the police force, foreign policy and how they inveigle themselves into the very fabric of member states. As we are finding with trade negotiators. They take away independent Nation's ability to think and act for themselves and remove that to the unelected centre. Well fuck that...

If you can't see what these bastards are up to then you are even more blind than stupid. Enjoy your Euroland negative growth, stagnant investment, 10% unemployment rate, 50% youth unemployment, permanent banking QE costing billions and a currency underpinned by one country - Germany. Because it will all fall apart very soon.

Amd the British peanut is now worth less than a European one ..keep living in fantasy land if you wish .but you cannot seriously believe the british peanut is not failing when its worth less than a doomed currency as you call it .

pounds gone up today

Still worth considerably less than it was either pre referendum or pre the boe dropping interest rates ..si still down against the euro sceptics doomed currency..really doesn't say much for the great British peanut does it ..you must really admire Germany if it can underpin so many other nations and still that says even less for Britain

could you please explain how a pound is worth less than a Euro?

The pound is worth less in exchange for foreign goods than it was and even less for goods priced in euro"s than it was ..which part dint you understand and shouldn't you have been asking before a referendum if you dont understand how it works ..

Could you please explain how a pound is worth less than a Euro?

I can buy more euros for my pound today than I could in 2013. Err pre referendum. But you still haven't answered the question"

well if you want to be like that in november 2015 i got 1.42 euros to the pound cant do that today WHY you ask because the pound is worth so much less post referendun what even less than a brexit mongering doomed currency ..

1GBP was almost down to 1.300USD at 1pm today and is currently at 1.307. The day before the Turkeys voted for Christmas it was 1.48 and the day after it was 1.36 so there is a clear and persistent lack of faith in GBP. I wonder why?

Here is why:

The £ was at $1.39 at the end of February.

It was at $1.40 in April.

It was at $1.41 in June.

What happens is (as I explained and you ridiculed it) traders, Hedge funds and private companies with a vested interest (like Markit) and the like build up huge 'short positions' in the Currency. They then talk it down (as Markit have been doing and again people called it rubbish) and then cash in 'making a killing' to quote the financial press today. As I explained you sell high to buy Dollars and then buy back low taking your profit in dollars and remaining in Sterling. There are other ways of 'hedging' and 'shorting' course.

So the people pumping up the value of the Pound in the 24 hours before the vote were not expressing any faith of belief. They were 'making a market'.

Carney being the good banker duly delivered the 'killings' with his cut in interest rates just as 'Markit' had said was 'a foregone conclusion'.

Now the REAL view on how investors see the economy is in the FTSE100, 250 and 350. All substantially up and at a 52 week high. On the day the Pound fell 1.4% the FTSE went up 1.6%.

Follow the real money and the real money is in stocks and shares because people are not seeing the catastrophe people like you are so aching for. You must wait for your Schadenfreude ...

Here is what Mark Carney said yesterday (as you seem to have missed it:

"The decision to leave [the EU] marks a regime change. Some of the adjustments to this new reality may prove difficult and many will take time. But the UK can handle change. It has one of the most flexible economies in the world. It benefits from a deep reservoir of human capital, world class infrastructure and the rule of law. Its people are admired the world over for their strength under adversity"

And interestingly just as indices from certain private companies 'forecast' impending recession the message from the Bank of England's own regional agents has been far less negative. even Carney who was 'forecasting' recession during Project Fear now appears more convinced that it will be avoided. And by the way that loss of 2.5% of GDP was over 3 years. And this from a Bank that couldn't 'forecast' 6 months GDP correctly...

Be very careful who you call a 'twat' in this Forum and Errrr ... actually no the Thread is about Italian Banks and the EU ... D'UH!!

And the Euro is a doomed currency because it is permanent need of QE support from the ECB and it is destroying the economies of Greece, Italy, Spain and Portugal and only survives because Germany is making a huge trade surplus (in non-Euro currencies) and can refinance the Euros lost in foreign currency exchanges..

I never fucking said the Pound was doing well. It was YOU saying the fucking Euro was worth more than the Pound as the Pound had fallen in value. The problem is that yes the pound has fallen about 10% (trade weighted) against the Dollar since the vote. But so has the Euro against the Dollar:

In April a Dollar bought 0.87 Euros.

In July a Dollar bought 0.88 Euros.

Today a Dollar buys 0.91 Euros.

That Mr clever clogs is a loss against the Dollar of 4 cents or 4.5%. So against a neutral currency the Pound has lost some 5% (trade weighted) against the Euro.

Now when you wish to discuss the real economy and why the FTEs have been out performing the Euro Bourses since the vote bring it on ....

In the last 7 years the average rate has been €1.22 to the £. Not that far off from today's rate. The lowest it's been was €1.06 to the £.

Well when we bought our apartment the FX rate was 1.45€=£1. - 10 years ago.

In 1966 the £ was worth 8DM by 1999 it was down to less than 3DM.

The pound once was the no.1 trading currency of the world overtaken by the Dollar & the Euro ( even though it's "failing").

In 2008/9 British banks had to be bailed out - RBS is currently £50bn alone - £10bn more than the Italian banks! Let's have a fair debate and not make out all is well in the UK. Time will tell and cleverer people than us will have to sort it out.

all is not well in the UK thanks to the incompetence of 'expert' bankers but the UK is in a far stronger position than the Eurozone.

Some 17% of bank loans in Italy are bad debt which is over €300 billion. That is many times higher than the levels of debt held at the peak of the financial crisis in 2008 and we all know what happened then

The anti-UK brigade need to understand a simple economic fact. The currency traders are making a killing on the post Brexit uncertainty some of the same people are creating and trading the currency for that reason alone. Quick Profit. It is not an indicator of the strength or otherwise of the UK economy.

Indeed when an economy is a net importer of goods as the UK is (especially from the EU) then a drop in currency exchange will work to reset that imbalance.

Institutions who are investing for the long term and income from shares and who are therefore watching how the economy is actually doing in real life and how it is likely to perform are making the FTSEs the strongest performing they have been for a year.

The currency of a country is not the indicator of how well investors see a country's economy. That is indicated by the Stocks and Shares markets where people look to make an income. People like Pension funds for example. And on that basis the UK is outperforming Euro Bourses by a substantial margin:

FTSE100: At a 52 week high.

FTSE250: Within 1.6% of a 52 week high.

FTSE350: Within 0.13% of a 52 week high.

DAX (Germany): 10.7% down on a year ago.

CAC40 (Frances): Down 15.1% on a year ago.

This is how hard nosed investing institutions see the UK and the EU and they prefer what they see in a post Brexit UK.

And for the usual suspects quick to call me a liar those are live data figures from 'Digital Look' as published by the BBC here:

I would also like to refer people to look at the financial times - a specialist paper which just reports facts. Clearly you do not understand macro finance - Pension funds are crapping themselves at the moment. QE is the last thing Pensions want as it reduces returns. Annuity rates have fallen 13%. Those who are in final salary schemes where they were guaranteed a good pension now are facing a great black hole - £2.3 trillion - which could bankrupt some companies. What does matter is the UK's current account - that's what dictates how well a country is doing. We currently owe - sovereign debt is around 90% of GDP almost £1.6 trillion in debt which cost us £43bn in interest alone. Put simply we are up to our eyes in debt - just lost our Triple A rating so all is not good at the moment. Fact is fact and who knows if leaving the EU is going to be the right move - time will tell. Don't you think it's strange that we haven't pressed the button? Well one of the reasons is we do not have the trained negotiators to do the job. When we do then the button will be pressed. But I do remember when Britain was the sick man of Europe, I do remember the strikes, I do remember the 3 day working week, I do remember the inflation at 30%, I do remember us having to have an IMF bailout & also the random power cuts - life wasn't great in the 1970's.

the stock market figures are skewed by the froth created with companies getting busy buying as many of their own shares as possible .... give it a few months for things to settle and we'll see a more realistic veiw of all the ftse's ..... til then, some unscrupulous folks are using the current rising curve to bolster their own agenda rather than being realistic and admitting it's not indicator of the current health of the economy so no conclusions can be drawn .... especially when most of the other main indicators which are usually used as an economic barometer are all showing a downward trend.

You are the guy who jumps out the plane not caring if you have a parachute or not. It will be alright... It is a long way to the ground, we will figure something out.

This attitude of so many Brexiters who are just so desperate to invoke Article 50 no matter the consequences are a danger to themselves and everyone around them.

If we are going to leave the EU (I still have doubts that we will - but whatever) I would prefer that our elected representatives have all their ducks in a row and understand e a fly what can and can't be done and what is best for the country. If it takes one month, six months, a year or more - I don't really care. Yes the uncertainty is not helpful but better some uncertainty before we set of in a direction that will be the best in the circumstances.

Who said I'm a Brexiter??.....and no, I am not going to metaphorically jump out of a plane without a parachute, I just believe in being positive and making the most out of all situations rather than taking a negative stance and creating problems of my own making.

Life will go on, but that doesn't mean that it will be as good as it could have been. Life continued after the plague, it doesn't mean that the plague was good. Life continued after the holocaust, doesn't mean that the holocaust was good, life continued after the Iraq war, that doesn't mean that the Iraq war was good.

Life will continue after Brexit, with a damaged economy, with damaged security, with a damaged research sector, with a damaged environment, that doesn't mean that Brexit is a good idea.

You are seriously using examples such as the Iraq war, the Holocaust and the plague.

Really?!?!

Life after Brexit isn't looking very rosy for you is it? How about waiting until we trigger Article 50, get an outline of a future relationship then leave before you start getting too dramatic? Maybe, just maybe, things will work out?

None of the events you mention were good but life got better after each one just WAIT and see how things turn out. Your going to look very silly in 2 years time if all the things you are saying will happen don't happen.

Back to the Italian banks.

My opinion is they will be bailed out by the Italian Government who will intuen go to the EU and blackmail them for assistence.

The EU will shit themselves and take more from the few member states contributing with the aim of keeping their experiment and freeloading going.

More ordinary people in more countries will become more disillusioned and want referendums to leave and our position becomes all the more powerful as a result.

I reiterate thats just my opinion so is not based on any fact.

"I wish May would just invoke article 50 and take any remaining uncertainty out of the markets....maybe then we can just get on with it without the bickering about what the future might hold and just experience what it does.

So do I now.

I'll bet the future holds ups and downs, boom times and recessions, rising and falling stock markets and currencies, life will just go on.

Life will go on, but that doesn't mean that it will be as good as it could have been. Life continued after the plague, it doesn't mean that the plague was good. Life continued after the holocaust, doesn't mean that the holocaust was good, life continued after the Iraq war, that doesn't mean that the Iraq war was good.

Life will continue after Brexit, with a damaged economy, with damaged security, with a damaged research sector, with a damaged environment, that doesn't mean that Brexit is a good idea.

You are seriously using examples such as the Iraq war, the Holocaust and the plague.

Really?!?!

Life after Brexit isn't looking very rosy for you is it? How about waiting until we trigger Article 50, get an outline of a future relationship then leave before you start getting too dramatic? Maybe, just maybe, things will work out?

I didn't say that Brexit was the same as those things! I was saying they are bad, and Brexit is bad."

How do you know it has,nt happened YET

Because it has already started to have an affect on things such as the economy, hate crimes, research etc. If its already having negative effects now, those are going to get worse when (if) article 50 is triggered, and worse still when (if) we actually leave.

"Hate crimes" is two words, would you prefer "racist attacks" instead? All I was doing was mentioning just a few of the effects of the referendum result that have already manifested themselves.

"When a Pound buys 1.1790 Euros can some rational person please explain to us how the Pound is worth less than a Euro?

This is the utter crap Threads descend into thanks to the usual suspects ...

"

I assume they are referring to the cost of living.

I live in the Netherlands. I saved 1000 pounds my student loan since the referendum. Also my wage has increased by 30% when I moved. Now it's 100% increase since I left. Work benefits pays for my travel and lunch. Rent is controlled nationally so it's affordable and we still have 103% mortgages.

I looked at moving back last month. I have to take a pay cut, lose my house since I can't pay the deposit and have to rent, pay more in bills, food and living. I also have to move to London since the tech industry is bad in the UK outside of London.

It looks bad from the the continent. However, I continue to evaluate the UK and the Netherlands.

And what do you think will happen if Article 50 id not triggered?

"What do people think is going to happen in Italy over the coming months given the Italian banking crisis and the EU ?"
The same fate as the EU gave Greece.
