Regret – a feeling of sadness or repentance.

The British are frantically Googling, what the EU is, hours after voting to Leave J (search engines data).

Has the ‘Regret’ feeling set in? Yes, it would have – why not?

When the currency is hammered.

When the Equity markets (FTSE 25- represent domestic UK focused companies) is down by 7.2%.

When the Bond Yields are crushed.

When the Property Developer stocks are eroded by over 25% (fears about a fall in home prices).

When one does not understand the immediate consequence of his / her action, the Result of Such an action, is to be borne.

No way out & No place for a regret.

Collective Wisdom or Regret? Time will tell.

But, for now it is – ‘The United Kingdom of Great Regret’.

Money Life decisions are similar.

But the decisions are easy & simple to make.

‘Herd Crowd’ or ‘My Need’

Apparently, in the referendum:

Every 3 in 4 youngsters, voted to ‘Remain’.

Every 3 in 4 Senior Citizens, voted to ‘Leave’.

And the # of Senior Citizens who voted exceeded, the number of youngsters.

The guys who had great yesteryears voted for the guys, who do not know what their future is J

   

The map says it all…Blue to Remain in the EU; the rest is, Leave the EU.

Head to be chopped?

This is one referendum (51.9 % : 48.1 %) which has been made a mockery of sort; ‘A Balanced Referendum

Allocation’ did not work there; but, ‘A Balanced Portfolio Allocation’, works great for an investor.

Balanced Money Life, works wonders J

The results are not out, but, Brexit is happening.

‘Friends in need are not Friends indeed’ – Maybe, the ditched European  Union (EU) feels today; especially Germany & France.

The Market Experts, The Big Betters, The Indian Astrologers – all got it wrong.

Uncharted territory for the EU.

But, one thing is for sure –

The selling in the global markets is unconnected to the Indian markets.

Sentiment > Indian Fundamentals

From an Investor’s point, this is again presenting a nice opportunity.

Should we start buying or continue to keep buying?

Prexit (Portfolio Exit) is though, not an option.

Sterling Pound hits a low not seen since 1985… below 1.35 to a US $...that is in 3 decades of erosion is under 30 minutes. All the Asian markets are down

Perception = Price of Uncertainty

Facts = Price of Certainty

When,

Perceptions > Facts = Expectations get built and the end result is far away from the Reality (a very high probability).

Facts > Perceptions = Expectations are closely tied to the Reality, or beat the Reality (again, a very high probability).

A perceived outcome which is beyond the limits of Certainty, is best ignored.

Money Life decisions are to be based on facts (Certainty of outcomes) & not Perceptions (Uncertainty of Outcomes).

Brexit – plays on Fear of Immigration

Bremain – plays on Fear of Economic impact

Both, are classic Perceptions. No certainty of facts attached to them. It is pure, FEAR play.

By the way…

The betting kings in London & the Astrologers in India are predicting a, ‘Bremain & not a Brexit’ J

We will know the answer by this time, tomorrow.

Now,

Rexit (Rajan’s Exit)

Brexit ((Britain’s Exit)

Are the words derived from, Grexit – Greece exit of Euro

When everyone is innovating, oh sorry, copying from Grexit….we can also do it J

‘Prexit’, meaning – Portfolio Exit

An investor should not ‘Prexit’, over Rexit & Brexit J

If possible, do a ‘Popin’ (poppins, the small candies) – meaning, ‘Pop In’ more investments into one’s portfolio.

Popin on Rexit & Brexit…avoid Prexit J

An 'Equilateral Triangle', has 3 corners, 3 equal sides with all the 3 internal angles congruent to each other and are at 60 degrees, each.

An investor's equilateral triangle has to be similar with the 3 corners being -

Patience

What to Avoid

What to Buy

Any of these 3 attributes change ( & in that order); its no more an equilateral triangle; and the portfolio's equilibrium is generally lost.
