Title: Post Brexit GBP new low USD 1.2966 heading to 1.2

" ... The 12 month forecast is also cut from 1.35 to 1.16 ..."

It appears that financiers are unimpressed with the post Brexit chaos with nobodies coming out of the shadows to contest leadership as the former leaders flee the consequences of Brexit chaos.

Is this the start of a downward spiral for UK? Will Scotland and Ireland secede?

Cameron has been the worst UK Prime Minister ever.

Quote:
Credit Suisse have revisited their forecasts for the pound to dollar exchange rate following the UK's vote to leave the European Union on June 23rd and it looks like sub-1.30 levels are on the cards should analysts be correct.

The institutional downgrades to the British pound are coming in thick and fast with analysts at Credit Suisse telling clients they have slashed their projections for the unit.

The cuts to the outlook follow the decision by the United Kingdom to exit the European Union, a scenario that was not factored into the Swiss bank’s previous estimates.

Like the majority of institutional researchers Credit Suisse were factoring in odds of a Remain win at similar levels to that of bookmakers.

The subsequent political fallout in the UK is also more serious than analysts had expected.

Indeed, few saw the resignation of David Cameron as contributing to the already massive uncertainty facing the UK economy...

Credit Suisse are lowering their 3-month GBP/USD forecast to 1.22 from levels 1.58 previously.

The 12 month forecast is lowered from 1.49 to 1.22.

With regards to the pound / euro exchange rate, the 3 month forecast is cut from 1.35 to 1.16.

The 12 month forecast is also cut from 1.35 to 1.16...

That's nearly a 1% drop in a few hours.

Boris and Nigel still hiding. Cameron still running.

GBP dropped to USD 1.282 before recovering to $ 1.296.

Its still downwardly mobile. The UK post-Brexit recessionary spiral continues.

Boris and Nigel still hiding. Cameron still running for the hills.

Won't this give UK exporters a boost? The Japanese were hoping for a weaker yen for that very reason ...

Manufacture a lot of inept politicians like Cameron, Johnson, Farage and especially Tony B Liar.

There's a new bunch of loss-leaders crawling out from under the woodwork right now ready to feed on the cadavers of their predecessors. The light is too strong for them.
