    Can't see any reason why I'd invest in the UK, it's quite obvious the place is in for years of turmoil with nearly all outcomes unfavourable from an investment perspective. As mentioned above, sterling will have to drop by a long way for UK exports to be competitive ... that's quite a tailwind for starters.
    Yes but that may be reflected in the price. And even a poor Brexit deal may be better than continued uncertainty with no one wanting to deal with is in case we will be on the wrong side of trade barriers soon .

    What a numpty. Just logged on and it turns out I bought the wrong thing :embarasse

    HSBC GLOBAL AM UK FTSE ALL WLD IDX C ACC NAV (MDAABG)
    24178.08 181.9827p £43,999.92 *182.80p £44,198.52 £197.60 0.45%

    Never done that before, must have clicked wrong row & not noticed. !!!!!!.

    There was a time when I could have done that myself
    But then I noticed how a deal can sometimes go through at way off market price - especially with thinly traded funds. So now I always google the share price and check its about right (or favourable ;) ) before trading.
