| Brexit 'shock' |
| 2016-09-07 |
| h/t Instapundit ...The upshot is that despite the turmoil of the last several months, it is now eminently possible that Britain will show a higher rate of growth in the post-Brexit third quarter than the Eurozone. Few if any would have predicted such an outcome. The British economy sails on as if nothing has happened, but the European one continues to stagnate. It is as if the Brexit shock has been more powerfully felt in Europe than in Britain. Both France and Italy showed no growth at all in the second quarter, and now even the data from Germany is starting to look poor. |

| #5 Few if any would have predicted such an outcome. The Few, the Proud, the Rantburgers. This guy has his head up his ass - that's the easiest call since the Patriots beat the Rams in SB 36. |

| #4 One of the pro-Bexit guys made a great case saying that currently there is no trade deal with such and such a country because that country sells something in competition with Italy who sells something similar. Now free of the requirements of a dozen countries Britain can cut a deal directly with that country (and presumably many others). A common market helps the transfer of good within, makes it a necessity for folks to sell within, and also makes it easy for protectionist policies. |

| #3 Few if any would have predicted such an outcome. The folks at RB really need to take over the world if this is the case. |

| #2 There's no Brexit shock. Nothing has changed except people realist the Bremainiacs were lying through their teeth. |
