> I don't see why people are thinking businesses would move. Because of all the fear-mongering and threats from the EU. Think about it, the UK could keep all policies exactly as they are right now, but the EU has threatened to "punish" them because they are not part of the group any more. I do not think the UK is going to restrict movement of skilled immigrants. This will put the EU in the unenviable position of saying to the UK, "We are not going to do business with you because you will not accept our unskilled immigrants!" The market panic is just investor withdrawal until they can see what is going to happen. As soon as the uncertainty passes, and it is obvious that the UK isn't going to rock the boat with "Trump-like" initiatives, the money will come right back.
