UK Interest Rate Looms
It is a pretty tight call, so all eyes will be watching…
Thursday sees the Bank of England makes its interest rate decision.
It looks nailed on to be held at 4%.
However the expected vote count by the MPC is for 3 to vote for a cut.
That's a pretty tight call, so all eyes will be watching.
With the budget already being discussed 3 weeks away, and with yesterdays press conference by the Chancellor, Rachel Reeves, she might be hoping for a cut to help stimulate economic growth.
If there is a cut or the vote count is different to expected it could be a bumpy ride for the Pound as the week draws to a close.
Over the pond there's something to get Dollar teeth into on Friday being the non farm payrolls. The last couple of readings have been a bit dismal, and only 50,000 are expected to have been added in October.
All around there could be turbulence ahead. Our dedicated account managers are on hand to provide any help they can if you have an upcoming currency conversion requirement.
Economic calendar:
UK: Thursday 12:00 BoE Interest Rate Decision
UK: Thursday 12:00 MPC Vote Count
UK: Thursday 12:30 BoEs Andrew Bailey Speech
US: Friday 13:30 Non Farm Payrolls.

The Hole Keeps Getting Deeper
And it's all about interest rate decisions…
We're still a month away from the UK Budget, and news stories are already moving currency markets.
Todays story was the OBR forecasting a 0.3% drop in UK productivity.
To put that into context, that's predicted to mean a further £20 billion required by the Government in the budget!
Whilst the official OBR forecast comes out at the same time as the budget on 26th November, this has caused the Pound to start the day in poor shape.
Expect more and more of this in the next month.
There are options to mitigate future risk including actual conversion, limit orders and forward contracts.
Your dedicated account manager at Regency FX is always on hand to talk through these options with you.
In the near term there's plenty of other news for the rest of the week to shake things up.
And it's all about interest rate decisions.
Canada, the US, Japan, and Europe are all making their decisions this week.
Canada and the US are expected to shave 25 points off each of their base rates whilst Japan and the Eurozone are expected to stick at their current rates.
Any decisions outside of those expectations could have far reaching repercussions to currency markets.
So what next, what should you do?
