Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez called an early election for Nov. 29 after parliament rejected a housing plan last week that his government had hoped would quell mounting social protests. Flávio Bolsonaro surged to a surprise lead over Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva in the first round of Brazil’s presidential election, making him the overwhelming favorite to win the runoff and take Latin America’s biggest economy sharply to the right. The exodus of the uber-rich from the UK has become a $160-billion problem. Bloomberg calculates that is the total wealth represented by people on the Bloomberg Billionaires Index who have loosened or cut their ties with the UK in the past two years. That includes a handful of family fortunes. The $160-billion surpasses the wealth of UK individuals on the index who still call Britain home.
