Pound at risk as 2nd lockdown looms

The threat of a second lockdown has become a risk event.

It comes at a time when GBP is already under pressure from Brexit.

Markets universally hate one thing: uncertainty.

We now face the prospect of nation in lockdown as it ends the Brexit transition period.

You can see why investors are worried…

The Pound could be facing sizeable downside risk from here.

Second-guessing the events ahead could be costly.

How to Break the Uncertainty

For those with currency requirements in the future, it might be prudent to lock in your exchange rate, so your money isn’t affected by the uncertainty and volatility ahead.

Pound faces intense selling pressure

The prospect of a ‘No Deal Brexit’ has driven Sterling down in recent sessions.

Where now for Sterling?

Technical analysts point to intense selling pressure in Sterling.

Any subsequent positive move is likely to confront strong resistance near a short-term descending trend.

Sentiment around the Pound is being driven by the chances of a no-deal Brexit.

GBP investors are becoming increasingly jittery.

The penultimate round of Brexit talks are underway.

All scenarios are feasible; however Sterling’s recent rally makes it susceptible to further losses.

If you have a requirement to purchase EUR or USD from GBP, please consider current levels as the Pound is still reasonably strong compared to recent history.

Just a quick heads up for you…

GBP/EUR has hit a 12 week high.

GBP/USD is back to a 7 month high.

The reasons are less clear.

The UK economy is fragile.

The Bank of England is still talking about emergency measures.

Brexit talks have stalled.

The deadline is drawing closer and progress is minimal to non-existent.

Regardless of the reasons, it’s an opportunity to secure a favourable rate.

If you need to buy Euros or Dollars, then consider locking-in a rate at these levels.

Just a quick heads up…

The GBP/USD rate has jumped to its strongest level since January of this year.

It’s a big move for ‘Cable’.

Strange things are happening at the moment.

The US stock market is hitting new highs while the US Dollar is sinking to fresh lows.

The propeller heads will rationalise it later.

For now, it’s an opportunity to secure a favourable rate.

It’s not a time to be complacent.

The Pound, in particular, faces an uncertain path ahead with both Brexit and Coronavirus to contend with.

As the saying goes “to the left is history, to the right is mystery”.

If you value certainty over speculation, then consider locking-in a rate at these levels.

The Pound continues to rise against the US Dollar.

GBP/USD has now gained over 14% since the March bottom and is a touch below 5-month highs.

Against the Euro, the picture is less clear.

Britain and the EU are back at loggerheads over Brexit.

A new round of trade talks will begin today.

Some progress would be a welcome change.

We see Brexit as a key driver for the Pound, particularly over the coming months.

The timetable of negotiations finishes in October – just over 2 months away.

There will no doubt be moments of hope and despair as the deadline approaches.

However, fluctuations in currency markets can work both for and against you.

It’s all about staying alert to opportunities and being prepared to act when a favourable rate is in front of you.
