Has Pound Sterling hit the top?

Last week we had an unexpected 0.5% rate hike from the Bank of England.

Usually news like that would give Pound Sterling a massive lift.

Instead, it provided only a short-lived bounce.

Since then, the Pound has been drifting sideways against the Euro and US Dollar.

Often it’s a sign of a top if a currency can’t sustain a rally. It literally fizzled out in an hour.

One thing’s for sure - currency markets are hyper-sensitive to inflation data right now.

Just look at what’s happening with GBP/AUD.

Today Australia announced inflation fell more than expected and the Aussie Dollar hit a 2-year low against the Pound.

We know the UK is battling higher inflation than peers, but should inflation relent, we would expect the Pound to give up its recent gains very quickly.

With that in mind, anyone looking to sell GBP and buy Dollars or Euros can still take advantage of current rates.

So what next, what should you do?

As always, we are on the look-out for the best opportunities.
