Brexit voting amongst market movers today – Danske Bank
|Analysts at Danske Bank point out that today, we have an indicative Brexit vote on the way forward in the UK, which is unlikely to be that important anymore given PM Theresa May's promise to hold three votes on 12-14 March (on a Brexit deal, a no deal and an extension of Article 50, respectively).
