Re BREXIT, looks like the powers-that-be are getting nervous.
Seems a prudent move by the brokers. They don't want retail accounts to take such a huge hit, they can't meet margin calls.
When more recent polls showed Brexit leading, it was said the market had only baked in a 30% chance of it occurring. Last week the market bakery got very busy. This week the bookie bets have unbaked some of last week's muffins.
Even if the market has baked a Brexit in perfectly, if it occurs, one can bet the market will take a nasty tumble on the FUD. The 11K talking head rumor seems overkill. A Brremain result, and things will soar. With the big kids getting rid of their hedges.
Damn Brits!
