Thematic (Sector/Industry)

The European Union (EU) is made up of 28 member states committed, through a series of treaties, to ever closer economic and political union.

Macroeconomics

There is a lot of stewing over the UK Brexit referendum, undermining the GBP, dragging down the EUR a bit, supporting gold and JPY, and possibly even AUD and EM currencies as investors presume the safest place is out of UK assets and even Eurozone assets until this mess is sorted out.  A vote to leave the EU would unleash prolonged uncertainty as new deals on trade and a range of other matters would take time in what is likely to be an unfavorable frame of mind from the EU side.  There is a great deal of uncertainty over what kind of outcome an exit might have for the UK economy.  While many argue it is unlikely to harm the economy and may even help it, the EU accounts for around half of British trade, so risk appears skewed to the downside.  The developments underway have parallels with the Scottish independence referendum. The prospect of Scotland opting out significantly undermined the GBP, but it bounced back sharply when they voted to stay-in.  In closely run binary polls like both the Scottish and EU referendums with a large pool of undecided voters, there tends to be a swing back to the status quo (better the devil you know) in the end.  It is hard to imagine either side of the Brexit debate will gain a clear ascendency ahead of the 23 June referendum, this will keep GBP down in the near term, but a rush back to the GBP is likely thereafter. An early election (July) is becoming increasingly likely in Australia as the debate over tax policy descends into the same old shrill scaremongering and the polling tightens up after the Governing LNC fail to take control over the debate on tax policy.  The housing market has become central to the debate which is an uneasy situation when many perceive it to be a bubble waiting to be popped.
