saed abukarsh, ark capital management chief portfolio manager. here we are, we are literally counting down the clock to brexit. when you look at this, next week there is a possibility that parliament could regain control and take a hard brexit off the table. are we closer to that van a hard brexit? saed: the market is positioned where they actually expect an expansion -- extension. if we were lined up for a hard brexit, we would see sterling traders substantially lower, maybe five or 10 figures lower. right now, we are expecting and extension, this game of chicken to play out until the very last days of brexit. theave a vote coming up on 27th. trying to, we are decide what they will vote in, rather than vote out. so the possibility to remove a hard brexit scenario, given there is not enough time to reach an agreement, will be paramount. fail there again, there will be another two or three weeks to seek some kind of resolution. i think it will be very dangerous for this government to push the eu summit, assuming ay'speans will give into m demands.
