Pound Sterling at risk from global events

But most of the movement is coming from geopolitical events, rather than market news.

Overall, this still seems to be favouring the US Dollar.

Escalating troubles in the Ukraine and Middle East are only part of the story.

There’s also growing fears around upcoming trade wars.

Trump has proposed tariff hikes for Mexico, Canada and China from day one.

Obviously, if that happens then others will follow suit.

Fortunately, we see the UK (and Pound Sterling) as one of the few currencies that may escape the damage.

UK-US trade is pretty balanced, so there is no need for tariffs (with the US anyway).

A quick update on market trends:

• GBP / USD is near its lowest level in over 6 months
• Euro / Dollar recently hit a 2-year low
• GBP / EUR has been stable for the past month
