Brexit deal prompts GBP volatility Last week saw some major pound volatility as investors reacted to an eventful week in Brexit negotiations. The pound opened this week trading lower again, with GBP/EUR trending narrowly around €1.1317 and GBP/USD having slumped to US$1.3340. Sterling movement is likely to be more data driven this week due to a number of major domestic data releases, however Brexit will still remain on the minds of many investors as EU leaders vote later in the week on whether to allow negotiations to move to the second stage. |
