It is over 4 months from stunning decision of people of Britain. It shook markets at that time and it looked that financial world never be the same again.
However, now we know that everything is back to normal. Of course, Pound is weaker and it does not seem it will strengthen any time soon. British equities are doing like the rest of equity markets. Pretty well.
Look below for numbers about the FTSE and GBP/USD development from day of “Brexit”.
Table: FTSE and GBP/USD
| FTSE | GBP/USD | |||
| 23/06/2016 D-1 | 6338,10 | 1,4877 | ||
