Yesterday saw the Bank of England decide to keep the base rate at 5.25%.
This caused a small initial dip in Pound rates.
However the dip was largely recovered on the back of other news.
The MPC vote count came in at 7 for unchanged and 2 for a rate cut.
This further supports the possibility of a Summer rate cut which was also mentioned by Andrew Bailey, the BoE Governor, in his subsequent press conference. He indicated the UK economy may have turned a corner after the cost of living crisis.
Today it's about the Canadian and US Dollar.
There's Canadian unemployment out later with the expectation of a 6.2% rate followed by the Michigan consumer sentiment index in the US.
Business news reflects on the rate decision yesterday with the rhetoric surrounding the Conservative party's "bet" on a recovering economy ahead of the general election.
CAN: 13:30 Unemployment Rate
US: 15:00 Michigan Consumer Sentiment Index
