There are lots of mixed signals at the moment
UK Rate Decision Today!
It explains the erratic moves in the major currency pairs, where trends have been short-lived.
In the UK, economic growth is weak, yet we have strong wage growth.
It puts the Bank of England in a quandary.
No bother, central banks are masters of saying a lot while saying nothing at all.
Will we get a rate cut over summer?
“It’s not unreasonable to believe” is the answer.
Meanwhile, the Europeans look set to cut rates in June. “It would seem plausible” was the coded language used. That’s about as direct as it gets from a central bank.
As the for the US, the Fed are looking to “gain confidence” before they start cutting.
Bottom line, Europeans to cut rates in June, then probably the UK over the summer and the Americans later in the year.
In simple terms, relative to the Pound that would weaken the Euro and strengthen the Dollar.
But as we know there is a lot of noise beyond the headlines.

How to get ahead of the pack with your future French Property Purchase
Why Open a Currency Account so soon?
It is never too early to prepare, we are seeing some properties going 'Under Offer' within days, especially in the lower budget brackets and one way for you to be prepared [and be ahead of the pack] is to be registered and ready to make a deposit payment on the property you want to buy [other currency parings are similar is GBP to USD].
What is the Current Status?
Sterling exchange rates are outperforming against the Euro, today, GBP to EUR is over 1.17, a solid level which gives enough of a case for Pound to Euro exchange rates to push up further in the near term.
This week, we have a few important releases before the Bank Holiday weekend, EU Consumer Confidence, UK Mortgage Approvals, US Fed Interest Rate Decision and Employment Data, but will they be a shock to the market?
So how can I protect my property budget?
The first step in protecting your overseas property budget would be to register with Key Currency, it’s free and there’s no obligation to trade. By doing so you get ahead of the pack because you can move quickly when you find that house of your dreams.
