“The government will launch a public information campaign for no-deal preparations, to make no-deal look like a credible threat to the EU and PM Johnson will have his first in-person meetings with Macron and Merkel at the G7 summit on 24-26 Aug, coming no closer to resuming negotiations.”

While markets are well-priced for a small depo rate cut, they’re less certain about QE, and any signals that odds of QE are rising could put further downward pressure on the EUR.”
