Article fails to mention FTSE100 is now above pre-Brexit levels and FTSE250 has nearly recovered... £ is still down though.

This is a normal post The two things are not unrelated but
at least people with money to invest don't think it's the end of the British economy.

This is a normal post Exactly. Far too soon to understand the implications and get all over excited.
I can't quite understand the pre-negotiation panic. My missus works for Manc Uni and the departments have been told by the Chancellor that budgets will be cut because of Brexit... Seems a bit premature.

This is a normal post Expect big cuts to arts and social sciences or anything deemed worthless by crashing idiots like Andrea Leadsom

This is a normal post She's the Minister for the Environment now.
She'll be too busy slashing feed in tariffs and ignoring reports against fracking.

This is a normal post Given how much academic funding comes from the EU

The real bloodletting'll happen when Art 50 is invoked.

As for the FTSE being up - well, some companies are. Others are really suffering: the FTSE simply aggregates that, and so hides big differences. Add to that the fact that there will have been people looking for a bargain post-fall (and for shares priced in sterling, there's no shortage...), and it's unsurprising that the market had a bounce.

Whether it's more than a bounce is a different matter entirely.
