The Pound has jumped to a 1-month high against the US Dollar.
There’s been caution around the Dollar because US interest rate rises are expected to be aggressive.
As for the Pound, it’s meant a rare bright spell against the Dollar.
However, it’s set to be another challenging week for the UK economy – not to mention Boris Johnson.
The fallout from “Party-gate” appears to be gaining momentum in Westminster.
And the cost-of-living crisis is adding pressure to the UK government.
Both could cause fears around the Pound.
On the continent, the Euro also had a good week against the Dollar.
Therefore, the Euro has been relatively steady against the Pound.
Stability is likely to be short-lived though.
With so much uncertainty in the world, currency markets will remain volatile.
