The Pound has fallen marginally against the Euro during today's trading session after hitting the best rate to buy Euros in 3 months. Part of the reason for Sterling's gains during the last few days has been because the tone surrounding Brexit has started to soften recently and it appears as though a deal could be struck between the UK and the European Union in the next few weeks. EU Brexit Negotiator Michel Barnier has spoken about the subject and hinted that a deal is getting...

Sterling has moved to a 3 month high against the EUR, hitting 1.1463 at this morning’s high. This positive spike is being facilitated by a potential breakthrough in Brexit negotiations, with numerous reports citing a prospective agreement over the Irish border. This, as our regular readers will know, was one of the most contentious issues in the on-going talks between the UK and the EU. This particular red herring had the potential to completely destabilise talks and as UK Prime Minister Theresa May pointed out in...

The pound vs the euro is now trading at its best level to buy euros since early July as the Irish border talks appears to be going well behind the scenes. This particular issue has been a big sticking point for the UK economy and at the recent talks a couple of weeks ago in Salzburg, the talks ended in a stalemate with the Chequers plan having been rejected by the European Union with no other alternatives being offered at the time. However, in recent days...

The pound has seen its value increase slightly against EUR over the past couple of days, hitting a high of 1.1293 this morning. This improvement is somewhat surprising, as there was a feeling that we could see the pound's value slip in line with the Conservative Party Conference which finished yesterday. Whilst there were jibes directed at Prime Minister Theresa May, her closing speech yesterday was generally well received. She remained bullish in her quest to achieve the “best deal possible” for the UK. It was...

This week could prove busy for the pound, mostly owing to the large amount of economic data due out that could influence the pound's value. Tomorrow there will be Construction PMI figures released, and I expect the markets to follow this release closely as they are forward looking as opposed to backward...
