Pound nears 12-month highs against Euro
Do you want the good news or the bad news?
We’ll start with the good news… UK inflation is slowing down.
Now for the bad news… so is the UK economy.
That’s the problem with inflation. It’s hard to tackle the disease without hurting the patient.
Despite a cooling economy, the Pound is looking good against the Euro. It’s approaching 12-month highs.
Economists still think the Bank of England may have to raise interest rates further to kill-off the wage-price spiral we spoke about last week.
As for the Euro, it’s been struggling to gain momentum as Germany, the big daddy of the EU, has man flu. German economic numbers have been a bit soft lately.
The US dollar looks more robust, helped by their economy.
US retail sales have now grown 4 months in a row. The US consumer is back spending (as always).
