Pound headed lower on rate cut rumours
The Pound has lost a bit of momentum lately
Both GBP-EUR and GBP-USD are hovering near 1-month lows.
The latest Bank of England meeting revealed that the last of the ‘hawks’ calling for rate rises have now changed their tune.
With inflation falling and the economy soft, the next move for UK interest rates looks almost certain to be down.
It’s weakening the Pound – lower rates, lower currency.
The Pound’s fall would be worse if it weren’t for the fact that the Euro and US Dollar are facing the same situation.
Futures markets indicate the US Fed, the ECB and the Bank of England are likely to make their first cut in June.
Ah, to be a central banker – just do what the other mob are doing.
So what next, what should you do?
