British Pound Trend Trajectory

Currencies / British Pound Sep 24, 2023 - 06:28 AM GMT

By: Nadeem_Walayat

Currencies

YES all currencies in free fall but for the time being at least the UK is showing relative strength against the dollar (dead cat bounce), it will eventually weaken once more to fresh lows. However as the above illustrates it is all smoke and mirrors, why I don't fuss too much over the fx rate that I buy US stocks at because at the end of the day CASH IS LOSING VALUE regardless of the currency it is denominated in! So it's a bit of a fools errand to wait for sterling to rise before buying US stocks as we have witnessed during the past 9 months.

Still to eek out that extra few percent it can be prove a useful short-term exercise to have a rough idea where sterling is going, one of the check boxes to tick off in our pursuit of maximising profits.


Stocks Bear Market Max PAIN - Trend Forecast Analysis to Dec 2023 - Part1

I would not be surprised if Sterling is above 1.30 by the end of 2023, with my central best guess being around $1.27 by late 2023. So I consider sterling today at $1.11 as being cheap in terms of the longer term outlook i.e. due a cyclical bull run within a secular bear market.

GBP peaked at $1.315 and then entered into a correction targeting $1.25 with probable overshoot towards $1.235, so about 2-3% worse than current £/$1.27 which thus should not prove much of a factor in terms of accumulating a dollar bond position. However sterling is still in a bull market so the correction is likely to resolve in a new bull market high beyond £/$1.315, against which 1.33 would be 5% better, thus if US bonds hold at current levels then would be 5% cheaper in sterling terms, so suggests better to accumulate gradually over a number of months though the opposite is true for UK bonds, i.e. to accumulate current sterling weakness, as rallying sterling would push downwards pressure on long rates.
