Overall, Pound Sterling looks in good shape

Exchange Rates Await December Rate Decisions…

Not too much news lately, but plenty of action and overall, Pound Sterling looks in good shape.

GBP to EURO has resumed its uptrend after a wobble at the start of December.

The Pound has also had a good lift against the Aussie and New Zealand Dollars.

GBP to USD is the only major Sterling pair that looks a bit soft.

The big selling we saw in the lead up to the US election has stopped, but the Pound has failed to make much of a recovery against USD and is range-bound at best.

In the absence of news, exchange rates are being driven more by technical trading at present.

But that will change over the next few weeks.

All of the major central banks have rate decisions before Christmas.

Given the volatility we have seen over the last couple of months, please make sure you keep in touch with our team.

Pound Sterling at risk from global events

There is plenty of volatility at the moment…

But most of the movement is coming from geopolitical events, rather than market news.

Overall, this still seems to be favouring the US Dollar.

Escalating troubles in the Ukraine and Middle East are only part of the story.

There’s also growing fears around upcoming trade wars.

Trump has proposed tariff hikes for Mexico, Canada and China from day one.

Obviously, if that happens then others will follow suit.

Fortunately, we see the UK (and Pound Sterling) as one of the few currencies that may escape the damage.

UK-US trade is pretty balanced, so there is no need for tariffs (with the US anyway).

A quick update on market trends:

• GBP / USD is near its lowest level in over 6 months
• Euro / Dollar recently hit a 2-year low
• GBP / EUR has been stable for the past month

Given all the volatility of late, make sure you get in touch and we can discuss the best way to protect your currency requirements.

Pound up today on UK inflation news

There is a lot going on, let's take a closer look…

The Pound has been drifting down against the Euro and US Dollar over the past week.

But today it’s attempting a comeback…

The latest UK inflation data has come in above expectations this morning.

This is good news for the Pound as UK interest rates could now remain higher for longer.

While GBP/EUR has fallen back from 2-year highs, the overall trend still looks favourable.

As for the “Trump Rally” in the US Dollar, it seems to be settling down now.

GBP/USD currently looks oversold and due a bounce.

We have a bunch of speeches from central bankers throughout the week. Investors tend to be sensitive to any change of heart.

As always, if you have any specific requirements coming up, give us a call.

So what next, what should you do?

Pound to Euro hits 32-month highs

There is a lot going on, let us summarise things…

There’s been some big market moves since the US election…

GBP to EUR in particular has been very strong, touching 32-month highs only yesterday.

However, GBP to USD has headed the other way.

It’s now sitting right near 3-month lows.

Post-election, the Pound has also traded modestly down against the Aussie, Kiwi and Canadian Dollars.

As you’ve no doubt seen on the news, there is the potential for some significant changes ahead in US economic, trade and foreign policy.

While Donald Trump won’t be sworn in until Jan 20th next year, policy announcements are coming thick and fast.

The bottom line is we think there will be plenty of volatility ahead, so it’s not a time for complacency.

Markets poised for Election & Rate Decisions

It’s the calm before the storm…

We have a very busy week ahead kicking off later today with the US election.

We’re not here to make political comments but it could be a volatile few days ahead.

All currencies could be affected because investors could quickly reposition themselves if there is any kind of turmoil.

On Thursday we also have interest rates decisions from the Bank of England and the US Federal Reserve.

Both meetings have the potential for rate cuts as well as revised forward guidance.

Expect the Pound and US Dollar to be lively over Thursday.

With a busy period coming up, make sure you get in touch with the Key Currency team for any specific requirements you may have.
