The one Megatrend in Currency Markets
Right now there is one 'Megatrend' in currency markets…
The strength of the US Dollar.
The US Dollar has gained against the Euro for 11 weeks straight.
And against the Pound, the Dollar now sits near 7-month highs.
It’s more astonishing when you consider the US has had a lot of nasty news recently.
As always, it seems to come down to interest rates.
The US economy is proving resilient, allowing the US Federal Reserve to keep rates higher for longer.
The same can’t be said for the UK and Europe, where it’s economic eggshells.
If anything, investors are pondering whether rate cuts may be on the medium-term horizon.
It’s a balancing act for central banks – how to kill inflation without killing the economy. Ideas anyone?
So what next, what should you do?

A big week for Currency Markets
The Pound sinks on inflation news ahead of a big week for currency markets.
Today we have the latest data of UK inflation. It’s good news for the people and bad news for the Pound.
UK inflation is not just falling, it’s falling faster than expected.
It’s such a key number for the Pound.
Tomorrow the Bank of England meet again and another 0.25% rate increase is expected.
Will it be the top? Probably is the answer. And that’s the reason the Pound is falling.
Higher inflation and interest rates have been underpinning the Pound throughout 2023. But that positive catalyst may be coming to an end.
Last week the ECB made it clear that rates have peaked in Europe.
It hasn’t helped the Euro.
In fact, the Euro has fallen for 9 weeks in a row against the US Dollar.
As always, exchange rates are responding to the latest news and events.
So what next, what should you do?
