Pound surges to 3-week high

Good news for Pound Sterling, the UK may avoid a recession.

February’s PMI business survey smashed expectations.

Business confidence is now at a 7-month high for manufacturing and an 8-month high for services.

The news has triggered a clean sweep for the Pound.

The Pound has leapt to 3-weeks high against the Euro but has had similar jumps against all the Dollars (USD, AUD, CAD, NZD, SGD – need I go on).

What’s more, the UK government has found about £30 billion down the back of the sofa.

Public finances have come in much better than forecast (thank you taxpayers).

But the UK isn’t in a bubble.

If things are improving in the UK, chances are things are on the mend elsewhere too.

So what next, what should you do?

If you need to sell Pounds and buy Euros or US Dollars, you might consider taking advantage of the recent favourable move.

Often in finance it’s better to react than predict.

Big week ahead for GBP, EUR & USD

Lots of important news coming up.

This week we have interest rate announcements from the “big three”.

The US Federal Reserve, Bank of England and European Central Bank all have meetings.

Rates rises are expected from all three central banks.

The US is expected to raise rates by 0.25%, whereas the UK and EU are likely to opt for a 0.5% increase (they are playing catch-up with the US).

The speeches that go with the interest rate decisions can be the most important part.

They offer clues as to what will happen next.

As a heads up, you often get a lot of volatility around interest rate announcements.

But volatility can be your friend or enemy.

So what next, what should you do?

It’s always worth being prepared in the event that exchange rates move in your favour.

If you have a currency transfer coming up, please get in touch to discuss a strategy.

Yes the Euro rises to a 4-week high versus Pound Sterling.

That’s a significant move in your favour.

We’ve seen interest rate hikes globally, but the ECB has said they plan to continue raising rates aggressively in Europe.

This rise could be a good opportunity to transfer Euros to Pounds.
