Sterling (GBP) Left Adrift as Brexit Turmoil Continues
The recent comments from US President Donald Trump that the UK’s current Brexit proposal would hamper a US-UK future trade agreement has knocked Sterling lower, increasing the pressure on UK PM May as she tries to sell her vision of a Brexit deal. According to Trump, the UK’s proposal ‘sounds like a great deal for the EU’ and with the agreement as it stands, ‘they (UK) may not be able to trade with us’. This intervention will heap further pressure on PM May who is currently struggling to get momentum behind her proposal, and as it stands, it is doubtful that the government will get its deal through the House of Commons at the December 11 vote. Currently 89 members of government likely to vote against the agreement, while the DUP, who have ten votes, has also said that they will not vote for the deal.
Against this backdrop, Sterling continues to slide lower and is now nearing the August low at 1.2660, the smallest print in 17-months. Below here, horizontal support at 1.2589 guards the 23.6% Fibonacci retracement of the June-October 2016 sell-off at 1.2590.
