Yesterday saw the ECB cut their base rate by 0.25% to 3.25%.
This, plus dovish comments in the ECB press conference, led to the Pound jumping versus the Euro.
The move was further bolstered this morning as the UK retail sales figures were announced.
A contraction of -0.3% was expected. However there was actually a 0.3% growth reported.
The better than expected weather in September has been cited as the main reason.
GBP/EUR has broken out of the highs for now, and with little UK or Eurozone news it could be a good day for buying Euros.
It's the same for the Dollar too, although a raft of speeches from the FED through the day could impact GBP/USD.
Business news centres on the Government relaxing rules on borrowing to support infrastructure projects going forward.
