Barclays has sold iShares for 4.4 billion - and hence the pound has shot up against most majors. This is just idiotic. Fed and BoE are completely impotent and traders are knee jerking - no discipline - no one has a clue of whats going on. It should still go down!I would say realistic evaulation of pound is around 1.44 region. Short term inflation doesnt mean economy is improving!

long above 1.4790 is safe

could it could go 1.4752 or 1.4785 and reverse but above 1.4785 is safe for long otherwise sort from those 2 points with tight SL is ok

Yep - I think pound is inflated (or overbought) 1M Bollinger says the same but its pretty useless measure.

What method of calculation or model are you using to reach 1.44?

Also supporting sterling (a bigger factor than Barc's sale of iShares) is the very positive news coming from Wells Fargo. As we all know, sterling has a very strong correlation with the fianancial sector and risk appetite in general. Upon news of the better than expected results from Wells being released to the market, shares in UK banks surged in support.

Just a note on WF their official earnings report is not due until after easter - its rather suspicuous that they would leak a rumour that their earnings are that high at this point in time. BoA and Citigroup havent - and their earnings reports are due before WF. As for 1.44 is my largely speculative number based on rough calculations when I have seen larger then due pip increases on news items like PPI input increasing by 0.1% - which doesnt add up because though theoretically increase points towards inflation hard pressed supplier usually try and increase prices as demand shortens to keep turnover ticking - however this isnt taken into account in micro-economics. Hence I think pound is overbought. Another theory on why its oversold is if you do a EUR/USD price overlay you will see the divergence with Barclays news being released. At some point in time the Eur/USD and cable usually cross over. Now its unlikely that Eur is going to appreciate any further with 11:00 news about possible interest rate cuts - so the likelihood is GBP moving down by about 50 or pips.

So you think the pound is oversold, but at the same time believe fair price of cable should be 1.44, much lower than where it now stands?

BoA and Citi have both come out in recent weeks saying their results will beat expectations, as have JP Morgan. Also benefiting banks, are the rumours that all 19 US banks are expected to pass government stress tests.

With 1 Trillion at hand and flexible accounting what company wouldnt pass a stress test and demonstrate they are doing better then they really are. This is all about investor confidence - They want the investors sitting on the sidelines to come back in the market - Bernanke did his thesis on the Great Depression of 1935 - he thinks the only solution is printing money and avoiding people hoarding monies in cash.

I am not arguing that the current market optimism towards the banking sector is justified. Indeed, I take the opposing view, as I have done for a long time now, often on this forum.

However, this positive sentiment is the reality we face today, and it is real. Furthermore, it may take quite some time for the harsh reality of the situation to shatter the investors' misguided perceptions. Alternatively, my negative belief that a great portion of the banking sector are insolvent may turn out to be overdone. Time will tell.
