There’s been some big swings in exchange rates lately.
This week the Euro has popped up, climbing to 3-week highs against the Pound.
Inflation is still the buzzword among traders right now.
We warned last week that central banks around the world are getting very worried.
Inflation in most major economies is sitting way above target levels.
Speaking of which, the Bank of England meets this Thursday.
With UK inflation surging, it’s believed an interest rate hike is almost certain. What’s said about future hikes will also be closely watched.
The US economy is in a similar predicament, but we expect a different approach.
The US Federal Reserve is likely to taper bond purchases rather than increase interest rates.
As for the European Central Bank, they are behind the curve (as always).
Despite Eurozone inflation running at over 4%, they are acting as cool as a cucumber – indicating that rates won’t rise until late 2023!
We believe traders have been buying the Euro ahead of the ECB waking up to reality.
The bottom line is currency markets never sit still for long.
There is always something bubbling, ready to change the course of future exchange rates.
Our pro-active approach can help you achieve a better exchange rate and avoid unexpected losses.
