Scotland De-Escalation: Stocks Jump As Latest Poll Reveals Majority "No" Vote
As AAPL surges back today, it appears the market is more sensitive than many thought to what is happening in Scotland - as we overheard yesterday how meaningless Scottish GDP is compared to America's. However, a flashing red headline on Bloomberg from a Survation poll in Scotland of 1000 people showed 53% No and 47% Yes - the widest margin in over a week... and stocks jumped. It seems that since nobody cares about any newsflow out of Ukriane any more since it is all fabricated, the algos have turned their attention on any "de-escalation" out of Scotland.
Stocks love this great news...
GBP is rallying...
Want someone to blame for the volatility... blame Scottish women!!
- 48.5% women to vote no vs. 38.6% to vote yes
- 46.8% men to vote no vs. 46.4% to vote yes
But don't tell them we said so...
* * *
We suspect the exuberance will not hold...

bollocks!
UK will ensure Scotland stays.
Must have oil for paper.
This is just like Braveheart. They are gonna be free, no they're not. They are, are not.
Like this "vote" is going to do anything other than allow a few politicians to say they've done something.
Just a big haggis filled with nothing.

They probably took the poll in a pub with a thousand drunk scots...anyhow, what does this have to do with US stocks? They didnt go down when the YES vote was ahead but they ramp higher on a poll showing the NO vote is ahead?
My girlfriend says that "no" is actually secret code for "yes". Wife disagrees.
bitchez be like "Aapl testing key technical support..."
Even if the "poll" showed 99-to-1 in favor of independence... TPTB would never let a little thing like a democratic vote stand in their way. Believe... they will not allow this to occur. Only another William Wallace - using brute force (against the banksters) - will bring about separation. Same goes everywhere else where central-banking-hegemony is at risk.
Hey Scotland, stop being the UK's northern little bitch! Break the chains!
I can't wait for this movement to start gaining momentum in the US. I'm hoping SC has the balls to initate the first move... again. However, this time, I'm pretty certain breaking away from the USSA will be protected by "political correctness", and the Feds will be somewhat impotent from letting this happen. You know, for FREEDOM's sake.
Works both ways guys!!!
What about who owns the Feds? Will they allow the states to secede? Or will they call in that collateral and we find out that the international bankers actually to have title to just about everything in the US.

There is so much nieveness in this reality t.v. trained world and no more a suitable group of daft laddies then in Scotland to step it up above the darkness, go time.
So much for the virtues of democracy. 53% get to decide the fate of the other 47%. 50% +1 = tyranny.
Have some haggis, dear.
Imagine the bribery taking place in Scotland with worthless paper Euros
A fragmented empire is harder to police.
A yes vote could have started a (needed) trend away from central planning.
47% is encouraging.
Thanks for the down vote. I would buy you a pint if I had the opportunity.

Behind the scenes extortion by the Bank of England......reaching all time highs.
Votes cost money and the Queen is not going to pay any more than she has to to enslave a bunch of skirt wearin bagpipe blowin Scottsmen.
Aye I'm givin her all she's got Captain.
That's raycist!
This is just getting us slaved up Libertarian Yanks something to get disapointed over again.
Yo mamma be raycis for havin' you as a babee!
"skirt wearin bagpipe blowin..."
aye, and angled-sexist too!
Come on lads, doan a'be wee scotty dogs! gi'us a reason to hoist a Malt ya feckless bastards!
q99x2,
You don't know much about the "skirt wearin bagpipe blowin Scotsmen" (with only one t, BTW), do you? Best fucking soldiers in the world, each with the courage of five men. On a battlefield, they amaze everyone.
The UK military is already lamenting losing them. Who will lead the assaults when the Scots will be gone?
And ask another 1000 people and you get another completely different answer
The bookies have "Yes" at 7/4. I would not claim to know better than Ladbroke's.
Once again a false narrative driven by skewed polls to get the desired results. The nanny state central planners always win.
For now, be patient
I think personally that the "no vote" will win. Scotland will stay.
Sadly, they're not "Ready for Hillary", yet.
What an excellent opportunity for Russia or China to get a foot in Scotland's door. BRICS Bank of Scotland. That would give the Jew bankers something to think about. Can you imagine how fast one nation after another will abandon the dollar just as soon as there is a viable alternative. No country yet has been successful at establishing an alternative and those that have tried have died. We are living in wicked days.
Whatever it is, it's bullish.
It's already been decided bitchez...
Must be the same polling outfit showing Russians dont want escalation in Ukraine and Dilma is going to lose in a landslide
Slaveheart
an aussie fucking american called mel gibson screamed freeeeeedom
and the weak willed medicated scotch fuckers whispered back can we have cheap booze and slavery instead.
Now that we're in the 11th hour up to the vote, expect the usual 1) you will lose your food stamps, 2) you will lose your health care, 3) you will lose your fuel assistance, and 4) life will be miserable without "big Daddy" UK. You just can't take a chance that those mean conservatives in England will cut off all support to you Scottish [losers] voters and leave you without the basics of life. Life with liberals.

if all the news out of Ukraine is fabricated, why do you report on it non-stop?
North Sea oil money flowing thru a yet to be established Scottish ministry/commodities market has the potential to disrupt world oil and money flows. The last time I checked, major disruptins in money flows, added to uncertainty of oil supplies, causes markets to go crazy. always has, always will. So why wouldn't the market react posirtively and negatively to news about north sea oil, a major source of crude on the world market?
It never cesses to amaze me how little economic knowledge is known or understood on ths supposed economics blog.
Huh??
Fractal Magnification.
What was the middle part? Oh, hold on, I just got a Facebook text that someone I don't know is having a birthday!
That's why Bernanke always testified before the politicians with a smirk on his face.
Bernanke knows the game is rigged. The outcomes are already planned.
True, Benny will never make it on "World Poker Championships"
Unfortunately, at the end of the day, the people of Alba will prefer staying in thrall to the City.
Sad really, but it lookes like it is a battle you guys can hardly win. They've mobilised absolutely everyone, even the royals to breed just in time. Massive scaremongering, which per se would not bother me if based on fact, but most of the bleak scenarios drawn were based on assumptions pulled out of their arses. Bottom line is, that the outcome of any complex economic development/decision cannot be determined beforehand. I can remember well how PM Brown claimed the UK would never have to face a recession again. 2006 or so. How many of these clever chaps saw the global financial crisis coming? Probably not one. And these guys can clearly forsee Scotland's future in every detail. Fuck them, arrogant yet ignorant pricks. They're costing you your right to a national identity. I wonder how long you will have to wait for the next opportunity.
What do you expect Queensbury rules from the UK? If the Scots want to show big balls, then do it. More "progressive social activists" just creating selfies for themselves. But it's now "Wait a minute you're gonna take me free shite, don't tase me laddie?"
Votes always go the way TPTB want.................assholes.
...please just follow the directions of the Diebold machine to vote.
Too bad. What an opportunity to start anew, especially with their oil wealth. Well, I guess there aren't any balls under those kilts!
Not just oil, Scotland is the only party of the UK with a legitimate claim on Artic assets. The stakes are huge among the hockey playing nations, Russia, Canada, Norway and Denmark are the great powers plus Alaska of course.
The only time 60 people (the difference in the poll) have had so much power to "turn the world on its ear" is when a group of Colonials met in Philadelphia in 1776.
The Hessian mercenaries wrote home that it wasn't a revolution in America, it was just the Scots war for the throne shifted to a new battleground. Scots led the fighting in Springfield MA, and in western PA outside Philly. Of course without Campbell, McDowell, Shelby, Sevier, Johnston and their Overmountain Men there would have been no Battle of King's Mountain that doomed the Cornwallis' campaign in the South. Nobody ordered them up, they just pooled what they knew about overland routes and took Ferguson out at the knees. Not history we are ever really taught, wonder why.
I have a Scots family tree in hand that started in 1716 and is just waiting to go up on a wall in Ayrshire. When I traded emails with a fellow in a village there he told me all of the Scots family history is in the US. "Everything we had was wiped out in the Covenanter troubles, "the killing times. We can't trace our families that far back. Lucky you."
Woo Hoo! No wonder equities keep puishing ATH's so consistently,everything "authored, rumored, anticipated" as "potentially negative" seems to find a solution and never actually occurrs with demonstrative evidence of what it originally projects!!! Actually, why would we ever see a "downtock" in ES ETAL if stawks are aware of this phenomena.......
William And Kate agreed to name their newborn Haggis.
Thanks for the laugh!
mr edlund the clever man who took the resonance ideas of nikola tesla,who digested all of teslas patents came up with a device called haarp.
a large aerial array was set up low frequency through put going up and coming down.
the return signal return resonance could be decoded as a way of figuring out was was down in the ground.
mr edlund concluded that not far from harris as in the home of fine tweed in the scottish islands a gas field had been found that was simply trillion dollar massive.
this was a long time ago me edlund sold his company then died suddenly and everyhing was hushed up.
even today not many talk of edlund or these hidden oil and gas fields later the haarp facilities became a james bond style weather and earth quake machine run by the rothschild clan but that is another story what what.
Not sure how much oil Scotland has left. Anyway most of what there still is belongs in theory to the Shetland Islands. And the Shetlanders may not want to split off with Scotland. Perhaps the newly-independent Scots can lay siege to the islands much in the same way that the Argentinians took the Falklands.
My great grandfather was a Scot. Damn, I was getting ready to apply for a passport.
The tribe will never let Scotland go, cannot let such a precedent happen in Europe, pretty clear no resources will be spared to ensure the NO vote.
'The trouble with Scotland is, it's full of Scots!'
"Damn Scots, they ruined Scotland!"
full of scotch i can tell yar that for a fact.
Naturally I'm rooting for the "yes" vote to stick it to the royal bitch and her offspring. She better start packing up her stuff in Balmoral or it will end up in Edinburgh's thrift stores.
Polls right before the vote show that a "No" is inevitable?
Who could have foreseen that?!
Do they have Diebold Voting Machines?
Yes? Then I predict Bush will win.
/sarc
Any bullshit event will drive stocks to new ATHs!
Come on Scotland......get your shit together.......I want my Scottish passport so I can dump my US passport.
