Sterling smashed

The pound's descent is well set to continue in the near term
July 3, 2013

I am a bear on the sterling/US dollar rate, says Matt Shaw at www.financialtrading.co

The dollar is gaining upon expectations that the Fed will reduce its money printing efforts, even though I think it will be forced into more of the same in due course. For now, I am looking for the pound to weaken against the dollar to below $1.50, with a prime target at $1.4975.
