The pound is up against both the euro and dollar this morning, as concerns about this week’s rate decision from the European Central Bank the EU and worries over US-China trade tensions in America keep both low.
Donald Trump is on a state visit to the UK today, and any Brexit-related comment could have an impact on the pound. This weekend, he said he would be behind a post-Brexit trade deal, but one that involved business access to the NHS.
The EU says there will be no changing of any negotiated deal, but there are differing opinions, as Ireland’s foreign minister said there is scope for change. And, with yet more politicians joining the Conservative leadership race, no-one really knows what direction Brexit will take.
