Pound hits 12 month High

The Pound’s rapid rise has continued.

Against the Euro, it has climbed a 1-year high.

And against the US Dollar, the Pound is not far off 3-year highs.

Given the UK’s success at rolling out COVID vaccines, other countries are under pressure to catch up.

The EU Commission is pushing for ‘vaccine passports’ as early as June – in time for the economically critical Summer holidays.

That may be good news for Brits but bad news for the Pound.

If the EU catches up with the UK, a lot of the Pound’s recent gains due to vaccine disparity may be lost.

Make sure any upcoming transactions are protected against the risks of sudden market movements.

We have seen this year how quickly swings in exchange rates can occur.

Pound all set for Budget Day

Sterling’s recent run has hit the brakes…

The Pound has fallen to a 2 week low against the US Dollar.

And against the Euro, the Pound hit a peak 7 days ago.

The UK’s accelerated vaccine roll-out had a positive effect on the Pound, but it was always going to be temporary.

Many countries are now moving from rescue to recovery mode.

Some central banks are even considering raising interest rates due to fears that there’s too much stimulus in the system – as can be seen by rampant stock and property markets.

Closer to home, the UK is set for the latest Budget.

Most Budgets are widely leaked to the press these days, so it may not make for exciting news.

Expect to hear the words ‘support’, ‘navigate’ and ‘recovery’ on a perpetual loop.

As always, we are here to take advantage of any favourable moves in currency markets.

Being pro-active with timing can make a significant financial difference.

Is the Pound heading for 3 Year Highs?

Sterling continues to defy expectations…

Against the US Dollar, the Pound has surged to its highest level in over 1,000 days.

If it climbs another 1% it will approach 5-year highs.

The recent gains are not limited to USD.

A similar uptrend has formed against the Euro, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Japanese Yen.

We aren’t getting carried away, though.

The golden run is being attributed to Britain’s speedy vaccine roll-out.

At some point, other countries will catch up – which could see a reversal of fortune.

There is also talk that the Bank of England is getting uncomfortable with the Pound’s appreciation and may be forced to act.

What should You do?

If you have a requirement to purchase EUR or USD with GBP, please do consider locking in some of the recent gains.

Should you wish to speak with a member of the team to discuss your specific requirements, feel free to call us on 01872 487 500.

Pound Hits a 1,000-day High

Sterling has continued on its merry way.

With the UK a lot further along in it’s vaccine roll-out, investors are pushing the Pound higher.

Against the US Dollar, the Pound has surged to a 34-month high – it’s been over 1,000 days since the GBP/USD rate was last at these levels.

In fact, the Pound has gained over 20% against the Dollar since its COVID lows last year.

Against the Euro, the Pound has climbed to 10-month highs.

That’s a gain of over 8% since March last year.

These are big moves for currency markets.

But you just don’t know how long the gains will last.

No doubt, other countries will begin to catch-up with their vaccine roll-outs, which would diminish Sterling’s outperformance.

And let’s not forget, the UK economy is still being propped up by enormous government support.

Right now, buyers of Dollars and Euros are in a great position.

For buyers of Sterling, it may be prudent to protect your budget from further losses.

Pound Hits 9 Month Highs

It’s not all bad news at the moment.

The UK’s rapid roll-out of the vaccine has given the Pound a shot in the arm.

The Pound has climbed to 9-month highs against the Euro and 2-year highs against the US Dollar.

That’s good news for buyers of Euros and Dollars.

Many analysts in the City have been confounded by the Pound’s strength so far in 2021.

The majority were far too pessimistic, but it’s possible they may well be right in the end.

When it comes to rates, you should never take things for granted.

One thing to remember…

Getting a great exchange rate can make a big financial difference to you.

Rates fluctuate minute-by-minute.

It's why timing is so important.

Unlike banks and online ‘apps’, we have currency experts watching the markets throughout the day.

As part of our service, we monitor rates continuously and work with you to optimise your position.
