I'm sure there is an element of truth in what you say Mickey but i suspect the real reason is that they import goods from sweat shops and pay in green backs meaning their goods will cost more.
The sliding pound helps exports but hammers those that only import. This could be a good thing as in some cases it may lead to an increase in manufacture in this country and with the exports being cheaper it will help us establish business in countries other than the EU if they get too arsey.

One does not blame a vital intelligent act for the idiocy of money manipulators getting jittery over what might or might not happen.
And indeed, if a company has not had the foresight to set the company up as a viable concern without the continued availability of unreasonably cheap labour, then it has only itself to blame when the money manipulators send exchange rates up and down and they catch a cold as a result.
Board level management are there to do the risk analysis and ensure bases are covered, not go for the max profit and hang any possible pitfalls; because they can simply go off and mismanage elsewhere.

OG, this does appear to have been the sort of freakish money movement that couldn't be predicted. I'm not a fan of Sports Direct but the Asian market wobble yesterday seems to have everyone scratching their heads.
The authorities should be doing a lot more than scratching their heads, imo, they should be finding out what happened, though I don't suppose they will.
