Ask HN: is it the wrong time to buy UK stocks?

Hi all, this might be the wrong place to ask, but let me give this a shot.

I'm based in the UK and try to invest regularly. I currently only have UK stocks, but because of Brexit, I'm afraid buying any more UK stock is a bad idea.

I'm also considering buying US stocks by using Freetrade, which I believe is the UK equivalent of Robinhood.

Thus, would you recommend I keep buying UK stocks and diversify, or I start buying US stocks?

Also, I currently have an investment ISA with my UK bank, and I'm not sure how getting a Freetrade account would work with that, although they do claim to support ISAs. Maybe I can move mine to them.

Fun fact: I am originally from France.



What are some good tech companies in UK to invest ? I remember seeing a company which had Amazon like growth in the last couple of years from 300£ to more than 1000£ (can't recall the name), would like to see where it is right now.
