Is the GBP utterly ruined? Is 2.1 REALLY good value?????????? If you don't need the money is it worth waiting for the GBP to heal?? |

Re: GBP crisis...yawn
The news today should be seriously good for the strength of the pound. The government now forecasts to borrow a lot less AND Moody's confirming the 'AAA' debt rating means the rates at which they get to borrow the deficeit will be good.
HOWEVER what I have seen is that the FOREX market seems to defy logic. Everytime there is good news the pound seems to plummet....so watch for values below $2.10 today.... |

Personally, I think currency speculators along with hedge fund managers should be hung as traitors! :frown: But watching the pounds constant plummeting to new depths of the exchange rate is not a fun game anymore - aren't we due a good spell soon? |

So, in the light of all the poor press myself and others have heaped upon the beleagured pound, who would NOW change a SUBSTANTIAL amount of GBP at the current crap rate of c 2.13?? Who has the nerve to hang on and see if it can climb to $2.40? Or by contrast who will make a move now afore it slides to south of 2. I remember at $2.50 thinking 'what the hell why don't I do the lot now'..alas I felt that $2.50 was insufferably low and thought it would within a year get back to $2.70 which is the 10 year median. Yeah right. 'Buy high sell low nice but dim Genesis' strikes again.:eek: Bollocks, thats what I say.
But might wait to see if you crack and transer yours soon :eek: Dewb |

Staring to seriously think about hedging our bets and transfering half our money to NZ and get it a good interest rate and leaving half here & hoping like mad the exchange rate improves :fingerscrossed:
