Rallies exclude Sterling
Yesterday brought an improvement in risk appetite with the news that Citigroup operated profitably in the two months of 2009.

This rally however has excluded Sterling, which remains weak on the back of unease surrounding Bank of England policy and a sharp decline in industrial production figures. Continue reading

Eyes on MPC
Markets are anticipating the release of interest rate decisions from the Bank of England and ECB this afternoon.

It is unclear as yet how this will affect the value of Sterling. Some economists predict added uncertainty will damage the Pound, while others maintain an end to rate reductions could provide support for Sterling. Continue reading
