Why the Pound is on a Knife Edge ?
Normally, the wise old owls at the Bank of England would be looking to put their feet up, down a brandy or two, and see out the year.
But this year, they still have one meeting left and it will be very closely watched.
The Bank of England faces a difficult decision.
The economic data coming out of the UK is strong. Economic growth (GDP) data due out on December 10th may reinforce this view.
However, there is a clear threat of rising COVID cases. The spike in cases in Germany, France and Italy will likely spread to the UK.
Pound Sterling will be highly sensitive either way.
In these uncertain times, you may prefer to secure an exchange rate now rather than worry about the market movements that lie ahead.
