Welcome to the 'Brangover.'
Markets are still digesting the news out late last week that the UK voted to leave the European Union. As was the case on Friday, stocks are sliding, the British pound is tumbling, and gold is rallying.
It seems clear that the decision will change global finance in a fundamental way.
The decision will have an outsized impact on investment bank earnings, and it spells bad news for dealmakers. As a case in point, Britain's government has scrapped plans to sell stakes in RBS and Lloyds Banking Group this year.
World leaders and economic experts have said Brexit is 'as significant as post-9/11.' In the UK, analysts are throwing around words like "recession," "contagion," and "stagflation." S&P has cut the UK's credit rating.
Of course, Britain is getting exactly what it voted for.
It's not all bad for Wall Street. A select group of hedge funds made some serious money on Brexit.
Legendary investor George Soros was one of them, though he didn't bet against sterling this time around.
Here's the best of the rest in Wall Street headlines today:
