GBP/USD had enjoyed yet further weakness in the dollar as the pre tapering risk off has continued to unwind across markets. The Hawk’s, Larry Summers’, withdrawal from being considered as the next Fed Chairman and the possibility that the Dove, Janet Yellen, may be the person for the job. Therefore, markets are expecting a longer term in current accommodative policies. Meanwhile, this week will hold a number of key events, from BoE Minutes, Fed Interest Rate Decision to CPI’s for both US and UK.
