Cable now 1.5850

Dunno why I care, I don't have money in the UK or anywhere else in the world.
That is my story and I'm sticking to it.

Almost 1% fall against the Euro today, so far. Ditto against the Dollar and Yen. Is this as a consequence of Dave saying he will keep interest rates low too?

Could be because I'm off back out of the country and the markets are rattled on the news.

Off to the US next week - got all my currency two weeks ago at 1.61.

1% equals dropping like a stone? You've not got much of a grasp of gravity have you.

I hate this sort of sensationalist reporting. It's always one extreme or another, then the actually story is a let down.
