RE:RE:RE:RE:Swell
RE:RE:RE:RE:SwellPersonally I think the trend has already started and January will be more of the same because investors are fearful of:
3. Brexit vote in mid January and the British goverenment sending warning letters to British companies (to prepare for the worse) will slow the economy in Europe even further
I certainly think you're right on all the others except this one. I'm looking forward to the opportunities that Brexit will pose, but I can't figure out whether it'll be disorderly or orderly and how that will affect other global equities. I see US equities taking a bump up with a disorderly Brexit, for instance, but I'm not going there because I think Us equities are still priced too high even after the latest fall.
But here in Canada? I think we're at the effect of controversy in the US more than anything, and one item you hadn't mentioned that seems to be becoming a real problem is T-Rump's fight with the Fed and the Central Bank. If he fires Powell or in any other way attempts to interfere with central bank rates, that'll mean a short-term flood of capital into the US and away from Canada which will depress the price further.
And given how he's acted lately, who can say that won't happen?
