Today's Currency Market Focus

GBP: Another dive down

The Pound dropped to a five-month low against the Euro yesterday as fears of a ‘no deal’ Brexit are on the rise.

With less than 8 eight months to go until Britain leaves the EU, nerves are fraying.
Last week the Bank of England stated that the risks of a no deal situation are “uncomfortably high”.

Adding to this, Liam Fox, the Trade Minister, said this week that the odds of exiting without a deal were “60-40”.

The uncertainty of Brexit is overshadowing any UK economic news. Let’s hope the fear mongering is a negotiation bluff with the Europeans.

EUR: Is the ECB warming us up?

The European Central Bank (ECB) has been criticised for being behind the curve.

Admittedly, the last financial crisis hit the EU harder than most, so they are understandably a cautious bunch.

However, yesterday the ECB announced that the recent acceleration in wage growth in the EU could foreshadow higher future inflation. Hints like this often precede a change of policy.

If the economic numbers continue to pick up, then the ECB may well have to play catch up with the other big central banks.

USD: Pause in rally

The Dollar took a breather yesterday. Traders attributed the slight dip to the absence of any news.

To recap, the Dollar has been rising on fears of global trade wars, so a lack of news is a reason to sell.

Looking beyond the trade wars, the economic picture in the US continues to point to solid growth coupled with tight labour conditions.

This is a recipe for further rate rises this year, which will help underpin the Dollar.

There a light economic calendar in the first half of the week but President Trump could always liven things up.

I was in regular contact with Cle France for most of my 2 year house hunt and always found them to be efficient, professional and friendly.

The house I eventually bought was on their website and the viewing arranged through them, I was pleased that that was the case given the help and advice I received throughout my search.

So thank you Sharon, I am very happy and relieved to finally be here in my lovely new home in the French countryside.

Regards, Mandy.

The department of Manche is in Lower Normandy and is bordered with Calvados, Orne, Mayenne and Ille-et-Vilaine. The English Channel in the west, north and north-west coastlines makes getting here to its many ports very easy from the UK. There is also an airport in Caen and many others are easily accessible in the surrounding regions such as Rennes airport.

History is all over the department through its museums and heritage, discovering the local traditions and culture as well as Chateaux, religious monuments, water mills, maritime sites and gardens is easy to do. The biggest 'must-do' is a visit to Mont Saint Michel.

Tourism plays a major role in the economy of the department which is fine because there is so much to see and do.
