China's economy's tumbling, taking with it a lot of developing nations'. America and Europe are only surviving on near zero interest rates, and everyone's played their QE joker card.

Why weren't the mistakes of the past learnt?
What will it all lead to? #corbynomics perhaps?

I'm not sure of the exact reasons (as I only work in the back office & I'm a little bit thick) but the markets are going mental today.

Don't use ghastly made up s*** like this please.

It's as s***ty and lazy as adding "gate" as to any word.

Mistakes of the passed learned ? This is money we are talking about, people fall over each other, throwing women and children to the wolves to get at these chances of making said money.

Even with China illegally and artificially propping up its economy for years, people still climbing over each other to get into their money.

Unfortunately, when it fails and they fall down giant holes, they tend to take everyone with them.

In the past our debt wasn't owned by China but now it is and as they sink they will call in those debts.
The West should never have dealt with China but capitalism is greedy and loves a short term profit.
Hey ho.

 


Cynic or realist? It's a fine line!

They can't 'call in those debts'. They are bonds and provide the issuer with a set number of years to repay the bond (between 25 and 50 usually).

If China was to flood the market by selling debt, that could cause problems but at the same time would massively devalue their bonds, so wouldn't make sense.

If the system melts and credit isn't available, how will Corbyn borrow money to do his 'Peoples QE'?

Am I right in thinking all those that blamed labour for the last financial crash are going to blame Cameron and Co for this one?

Seems only fair to say that they should have foreseen it and done something about it.

Keeping britain out of the Euro was a bloody good bit if business. In the last financial crash your pound dropped 40% of its value overnight.

many of you didnt even notice. Your house price, rent, wages etc all dropped dramatically to take the brunt of the shock. That is how the UK did much better than the eurozone, the only price we paid is no longer wanting to go on holiday to the Med.

i predict :
this crash will kill the euro as the PIIGS economies all bail out and go back to funny money.

continued low inflation and interest rates

more London property boom

cheaper football tickets

the continued death of pubs and nightclubs

People moving to smaller cars, homes, budgets,

values of fine art and commodities rising.

Unemployment out in the regions and brownfield towns continuing

the continuing rise of Croydon as an alternative office space to central London
