- The GBP/JPY pair is tracing its way back towards 144.00 as risk appetite appears to be staging a recovery through the broader markets.
- The Sterling has been given a mild boost after PM May supported the BoE’s Mark Carney retaining his position at the helm of the UK central bank to the full end of his eight-year term.
- The pair still remains steeply off of last week’s high, and this week’s bottom marks in an inflection zone that could erode support for a move higher.
