The Pound Sterling lost some of its strength as data suggested a drastic drop in Consumer confidence, in fact, the worse since 1994. The country is also concerned about the government’s austerity measures and this has translated into the negative figures. The astonishing dip was certainly due to the hike in V.A.T which went from 17.5 percent to 20 percent. Speculations that the BOE may not increase interest rates continue to be strong.
