The United Kingdom has a new prime minister - Boris Johnson.

He's undoubtedly a controversial figure at a time when the UK is teetering on the edge of outright upheaval over its "Brexit" departure from the European Union.

That would be a mistake - an expensive one.

The UK is the world's fifth- or sixth-largest economy, depending on how you want to measure it. It's a critically important NATO and European ally. The cultural ties are important, sure, though for investors, they're not quite as important as the business and financial links, or the $262.3 billion worth of trade our two countries conduct in any given year.

Just because it's cliché to say "When one sneezes, the other gets a cold," doesn't mean it's not true.
