"The U.K. allowing Swiss shares to trade will do little to overcome the exodus of EU shares after Brexit. The three biggest venues in London that handle European shares saw almost all of this business shift into the EU on the first day of trading after the U.K. completed its exit from the bloc on Dec. 31."

Yeah, it doesn't seem like very good argumentation to cite a source while taking the exact opposite viewpoint from the one substantiated in said source.

I can’t tell if this is sarcasm. I’ve accidentally done what OP has done. I‘d read an article with a useful and clear argument, and then later when I came across a relevant discussion, I‘d try to find that article. Yet in the search process I unfortunately end up not finding the original, and in my haste end up linking to the wrong article with the wrong argument(s).
