Clé France

The Pound has been put to the test this week.

Against the Euro, GBP faced heavy selling yesterday only to then bounce right back and hit fresh highs for the year.

From a technical perspective, it will be seen as a bullish indicator.

We suspect the reason was more to do with the Euro.

The EU continues to drag its heels on the vaccine roll-out. It could stall an economic recovery.

And now Italy looks to be facing a 3rd wave of COVID cases – adding to the negative outlook.

Against the US Dollar, the picture is less clear.

GBP peaked against USD almost 3 weeks ago.

Since then, the rate has stayed in a tight range, but we know stability never lasts long in foreign exchange.

As always, we will be looking to take advantage of any favourable moves for our clients.

Volatility can be turned to your advantage.
