RE:RE:RE:Break It - Brits - Uncertain Times - VOLATILITY If this doesn't move up in the next couple of days then I clearly have no right to be investing my family's money and my wife is correct. And my marriage is depending on volatility from Brexit so I hope my next post isn't about divorce papers that I have to sign as my wife is really a babe. Sigh.

The rate hike will likely be back in focus. If BREXIT wins, it’s like the end of any rate hike. Otherwise, it’s back to the FED’s wait and see approach which tends to help the markets
The August –January period for 2014 and 2015 has been bad for the markets caused mostly by falling commodity prices. 2016 is following 2015 so far. So if it’s the same playbook, we can expect some volatility and falling oil in the coming months including the presidential elections.
The perfect storm of BREXIt and Trump could put protectionism back in focus and do a number on the markets.
