CABLE: GBP/USD dipped 26 pips yesterday, as uncertainty stemming from Brexit
matters and the UK's political outlook continued to weigh on sterling. A squeeze
above $1.2700 in the London morning was promptly retraced due to renewed selling
pressure, while subsequent recovery attempts held shallow.
- With cable sitting at $1.2657, a few pips better off, bears look to the May 23
low of $1.2606, the worst level since early Jan. Bulls set their sights on
$1.2702, which capped gains yesterday.
- UK PM May, who is due to step down next week, signalled that she will not put
her Withdrawal Deal to parliament, as Brexit is now a "matter for her
successor." Commons' Speaker Bercow pushed back against the idea that a
eurosceptic Tory leader could trigger a no-deal Brexit without Parliament's
consent. Elsewhere, the Mirror reported that Labour leader Corbyn will
officially back a second Brexit referendum within days.
- BoE's Ramsden will make a speech on Thursday.
