The Bank of England has made a second emergency interest rate cut to 0.1%, its lowest ever. Following the cut and suggestion of yet further stimulus measures to come, the pound saw an uptick against the euro and dollar.
Euro had a mixed day amid a backdrop of travel bans and lockdowns, with construction figures coming in unexpectedly high year-on-year.
Meanwhile, the US dollar has started the day in a slightly weaker position after a long winning streak.
