GBP has been on an interesting downleg. It has lost for 8 weeks in a row. The last time this happened was in 1976 during the GBP crisis. What are we heading into? Carney will pay a heavy price for leading markets the wrong way by saying rates are going to rise. That was back in June. No one knows why he said that. UK wages have been downward. Inflation well under 2%. GDP was heavily manipulated number so no one really cares whether it is 3.2 or 2.2%. Yet Mr Carney decided to lead the markets the wrong way back in June. Then he said wages and productivity are an issue in Aug and markets immediately knew this man has no clue. GBP below 1.66 lost more than 700 pips in 2 months. What a fall!!!
