Thursday, February 2, 2012

 

Until lunch break session (Thursday, 2 / 2) Sterling rallied brilliantly to reach record high of $ 1.5857 because these currencies are bought back a lot of data after the UK manufacturing PMI jumped well above expectations.

 

UK manufacturing sector PMI numbers recorded rose to 52.1 from 49.7 previously and well above market expectations of 50.0. The improvement in the sector numbers instantly trigger a pound surged to near its highest level in 2?-Months against the U.S. dollar.

 

However, the weakness of most of the UK last week's data still highlights the fact that the economic outlook is still not as good as expected. Some recent UK data, including GDP, still showed the economy was on the verge of recession, and the condition is likely to urge the BoE (Bank of England) to immediately add the asset buying program to boost the economy.

 

As a result, the majority of analysts still recommend a sell on every rise in British currency, given the BoE seems to have been preparing to announce a further round of QE in February.
