Well that didn’t go to plan…
Sterling fell sharply yesterday after Parliament voted down an amendment that would have delayed Brexit.
In short, it means the worst-case scenario 'a No-Deal Brexit' is still on the table.
The problem is essentially this:
Parliament knows what it doesn’t want but doesn’t know what it does want.
Time is running out to avoid crashing out of the EU in March.
If such a scenario becomes a reality, the Pound could drop like a stone.
That’s because the recent rally was a result of growing expectations that the UK will avert a no-deal Brexit. If that’s not the case, then it becomes a cliff-edge moment for the Pound.
