Between Brexit To HKexit: To Be Or Not To Be, That's The Question
Summary
- A 'make or break' moment for the UK and Europe to reach a Brexit Deal.
- The British Pound has been particularly strong in recent months, in-spite of the UK's economy being particularly weak.
- If there's no deal - anyone really believe there won't be? - the GBP is going to lose a lot of steam, very fast.
- Meanwhile in Hong-Kong, people are having their own version to Brexit.

I have a dream, a song to sing
To help me cope with anything
If you see the wonder of a fairy tale
You can take the future even if you fail
I believe in angels
Something good in everything I see
I believe in angels
When I know the time is right for me
I'll cross the stream, I have a dream

Brits...
It takes them years to only-maybe reach a Brexit deal, but only days to approve a COVID19 #vaccine.
The UK's economy is en-route for the worst year EVER.
The strong GBP over recent months (one of the best performers against the USD) certainly ain't gonna help in a much needed recovery, post Brexit.
Nonetheless, if the Europeans and the Britons don't reach a deal - what we see this morning (the British Pound is down 1.5% as I type this) - GBP might move very quickly back to the low-mid 1.20s
UK officials are warning that Brexit talks could collapse in hours unless there is progress today.
A call between PM Boris Johnson to Europe's von der Leyen is seen as a "make or break" moment.
Frankly, we heard these warnings for months, and usually these things tend to "miraculously" resolved at the very last minute, possibly injury time...
Meanwhile, in Hong-Kong, residents aren't waiting for a Brexit deal to be reached and they form their own "HKexit" version.
An Exodus from Hong-Kong into the UK is taking place, with Britain now granting 5 passports to HK residents every minute, on average.
These Hong-Kongers are seeking a refuge from China's tightening grip.
Running to British arms from the Chinese harm?
