Dead Cam Bounce?

Try again! Interruption courtesy of Mr Socks (who can get eths out of a keyboard) possibly ended.

So after tanking in the immediate aftermath (now that's a phrase--cliché?--I've never knowingly typed before) the FTSE closed higher at the end of the week than it did at the beginning (6,021.09 to 6,138.69 [OMG: the volume of trading on Friday: 7,755,260,354] source: markets.ft.com/research//Tearsheets/PriceHistoryPopup?symbol=FTSE:FSI). Can't see it lasting. A long, possibly slow, decline after that dead Cam bounce.

The market had factored in both their expectation of the chances of brexit and the uncertainty. The steep rise beforehand was because they'd calculated the former wrong, so the one-day fall can be ignored. Some of the uncertainly has gone with the result, but more remains. I reckon the market is 10% down on where it would be with a Remain decision, which is probably a fair assessment of the reduced value of the equity. The FTSE 100 has lots of foreign derived income, which of course has now risen, the FTSE 250 index is a better assessment of UK based companies, and that has fallen more.

FTSE 250 has fallen 13%

I was thinking of investing before, more so now
