Busy week ahead – Can the Pound battle on

The past few of weeks trading have been good for the pound and has seen it make gains across the board. As it stands finds itself in the strongest position it has been in all year, and is now at the highest levels it has been against the Dollar and Euro all year, whilst across the board we are seeing some of the highest trading levels in some time – AUD, THB, ZAR and INR to name but a few.
We have an extremely busy week for data releases, with a number of key Interest rate and GDP decisions so without doubt we will see movement in the rates, the question of course being can the pound continue its onslaught?
