Sterling continues to defy expectations…
Against the US Dollar, the Pound has surged to its highest level in over 1,000 days.
If it climbs another 1% it will approach 5-year highs.
The recent gains are not limited to USD.
A similar uptrend has formed against the Euro, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Japanese Yen.
We aren’t getting carried away, though.
The golden run is being attributed to Britain’s speedy vaccine roll-out.
At some point, other countries will catch up – which could see a reversal of fortune.
There is also talk that the Bank of England is getting uncomfortable with the Pound’s appreciation and may be forced to act.
