People seem surprised that Britain voted to exit the EU.  We at SMA with our partners the CBOE are not nearly as surprised as everyone else.  Russell Rhoads from the CBOE has been blogging and Tweeting with SMA data for two weeks that it looks like the Brexit is going to happen.  Let’s look at the timeline.  Again, this is not a post analysis, these Tweets were out there 2 weeks ago!

The final post on June 22 talked about strong social media indicators towards the exit. The #VoteLeave campaign has dwarfed the conversations of every other opinion, including the BBC debate. The prediction turned out to be true.
