Well if the power of positive thought works we should be OK. Don't let's kid ourselves though - this is a World problem not just USA and UK. Problem is that the most valuable commodity of all is confidence and that will take a while to come back.
Meantime investment and general spending will suffer badly and money is like the blood in our veins, if it stops circulating in the sytem we are in trouble.
I don't worry about Egypt at the moment too much, but it will be affected (workers remittances, suez canal dues, oil and gas prices which are falling again (petrol down to £1.02 near me was £1.20) and tourism will be hit with lack of money and airfares (wherever the tourists come from).
Still. it's better to worry about this lying in the sun by a pool in Egypt.....
Keep optimistic but also keep real!
