The Pound enjoyed a small bounce yesterday after Boris Johnson won the leadership race.
But the relief rally may be short-lived.
We now have roughly 97 days until the 31st Oct Brexit deadline.
And the truth is no-one knows how this will play out, including our new PM.
Despite having a new leader, the Conservatives remain deeply divided and have a wafer thin majority.
For these reasons the betting markets still think there’s only a 25% chance of a ‘no-deal’ Brexit happening.
But what that tells you is there is still a lot of potential downside in Pound Sterling as the risks of ‘no-deal’ are still not really priced in.
One thing seems certain, it’s going to be a rocky ride in the next few months.
If you need to sell Euros at present, you might consider taking advantage of Sterling weakness and locking-in a rate of exchange.
On the other hand, if you need to purchase Euros with your Pounds then you need to weigh up whether you can afford for the rate to fall further.
