UK Snap Election: What Does It Mean?

업데이트됨

Quote: British Prime Minister Theresa May has triggered the process for an early general election, sending shockwaves through the UK political world.

But what does it mean for the rest of the globe?

British governments generally last for five years, and the Conservative Party's administration -- then led by May's predecessor David Cameron -- was elected in 2015. The next election was not due to take place until May 2020. ...
... May, who took over when Cameron resigned in the wake of Britain's decision to leave the European Union, wants to seek a stronger mandate in Brexit talks. ...
... But her party only has a slim majority in Parliament, and opposition parties have attempted to throw rocks in her path towards Brexit.
She also faces divisions in her own party over Brexit tactics -- although perhaps not surprisingly, May didn't mention those on Tuesday.

Remark: In this trading idea will be provided accurate and unbiased information to share with the trading view community.

I just want to make one personal comment on the snap election:

Finally the result could be something like "ironic". Last time, when a Britisch Prime Minister tried to obuse Britains voters to extend his political power he failed.

The name was David Cameron and his intention was to force Britains voters for a "NO" to the BREXIT on June 23rd 2016.

Latest polls showing conflict numbers

The "pro BREXIT" related "The Sun" is showing other numbers than other polls. Just the results will prove the polls again if there are right or wrong.

Until "The Suns" lates polls came out the numbers had shown, that Theresa May is going to fail. The spread between Torries and Labour narrowed to just 13%. This was at the lower end of past 6 months opionion polls. Any low spread at the snap election would weaken Theresa Mays plans for something like a "hard BREXIT".

April 18th 2017: The U.K. Snap Election Is Riskier Than It Seems

Quote: Conservatives are way ahead of Labour in polls of the United Kingdom — which may have been behind Prime Minister Theresa May’s decision to declare a “snap” general election for June 8 in the hopes of increasing her party’s majority in Parliament.

But May’s move isn’t risk free. In fact, if the final polls come within a couple of percentage points of the actual vote on June 8, it will be something of an upset. Polls in the U.K. have a history of inaccurate performance, with average errors that more than double the ones in American presidential elections.

Political risks in Europe still exist, but analysts point to recent figures that suggest the euro zone economy is growing at its fastest rate in years, much faster than the U.S. economy.
European focused, U.S.-based domiciled funds alone saw net inflows of $4.2 billion in May, bringing total net flows year-to-date to $9.2 billion.
So far this year investors moved $13.7 billion to European funds.
