Global Exchange Rate

Image
Researched by Araba, Olawale Enifenilanfe Sterling edged up from a new 21-month low against the dollar hit earlier on Wednesday after Britain’s weak economic outlook and higher than expected government borrowing dented the Bank of England’s (BoE) monetary tightening narrative. Money markets have been scaling back bets on the size of BoE rate hikes, pricing in 144 basis points (bps) worth of tightening by year-end from 160 bps last Friday. The pricing was at 140 bps late on Tuesday. [IRPR] Data showed that government borrowing in the 2021/22 financial year was almost 20% higher than forecast. British retail sales slumped in April, with the first fall in volumes in more than a year, reflecting a cost-of-living squeeze and changes in spending patterns and adding to signs of a slowdown in the economy. Unicredit forex strategist Roberto Mialich said he expected a further scaling back of expectations for BoE monetary tightening in the medium term as he forecast the BoE to raise its policy ra

​ Edited By Araba, Olawale Enifenilanfe  ...the ruble is currently trading at 74.49 rubles per dollar. April 25, 2022: Despite interest rate cuts, Russian ruble holds steady against the dollar On Sunday, Russia entered the third month of its invasion of Ukraine, with no sign of an end in sight. Despite severe pushback in the shape of the toughest economic sanctions ever imposed on a country, the ruble, the Russian currency, appears to be strengthening. What’s become evident is that, despite an enormously broad package of sanctions on Russia’s government and oligarchs, as well as an exodus of foreign enterprises, the moves are mostly ineffectual if foreign nationals continue to consume Russian oil and natural gas, which supports the ruble. On Feb. 24, the first day of the invasion, the ruble traded at 81 rubles per dollar. At the time of writing this article, the ruble is currently trading at 74.49 rubles per dollar. This figure comes after Russia’s central bank cut back on its hawkish
