Pound Sterling stops its decline to the US Dollar in a sales session on Thursday. That was happened after two days in a row weakness. The cause was the vaccine scramble. Before, the European Union planned to stop the vaccine export to England.

They wanted to stop that because of the lack of vaccines in their areas. So far, it is known that the vaccination in England is going smoothly. That problem is finally will be checked by the authorized European commission to maintain the policies for sales.

It is especially for their 27 country members. The European commission will make a document to ensure that the export plan of the countries that make the medicine will not threaten the vaccine supply. It is especially for the European Union countries.

GBP / USD Increased by 0.4 Percent

When the news was written, the GBP / USD increased by 0.4% to 1.3741. However, the prices are not really rising yet, especially from the weakening waves that reach 1 percent in this week. Pound continues to decline together with the Euro.

That happened since the European Union considered the steps to watch the England vaccine export. Besides that, the US Dollar rally also happened because of the risk aversion sentiment. It makes the Pound progress is really difficult to have.

Before, the great vaccination speed in England has been making Sterling as a G10 currency with the best performance. That is especially to Dollar in February. Pound reached the level of 1.42 in that time. However, it decreased again by under 1.40 this month.

However, the Pound power to Dollar is not that significant. This currency is higher than Euro. Meanwhile, the EUR / GBP fallen by 0.71 percent to 0.8566 when this news was written. That makes the three days the rally happened before was erased only in a day.

The Sterling Progress in the Market

Sterling has to work really hard lately. The analysts note that its normal financial value in a short-term period has been increasing. It is especially versus Euro in the last two weeks for more than 1 %. That brings the new consideration for the market participants.

Euro – Sterling has not to low anymore where they are close to the normal value of 0.8640. That is why; the further decline door is finally opened on its way to the target of 0.85 pence. The short-term valuation is no further a huge obstacle anymore.

Elsewhere, Euro stopped its decline to the USD in a sales session on Friday last night. It responded to the data from the Germany economy which is getting better. However, that single currency product is still shadowed by the doubt of the economic recovery.

The cause is the vaccination speed which is slowing down and the increase of the COVID-19 patients. When this news was released, the EUR / USD was slightly increasing by 0.26 percent to 1.17985. That bounced from the three days in-a-row decline happened before.

The Business Trust in Germany

The business trust in Germany is increasing and touching its highest level in two years. That happens in this month. The indicator released by IFO increased by 96.6 from 92.7. That achievement is also higher than what are the people expected so far.

That EuroZone the biggest economic country gets the benefits from the increasing demand. It is especially from the manufacture of goods. Those things make the factories are able to breath and stay optimistic, although they are hit by the increase of coronavirus infection.

The lockdown situation also becomes one of the causes. However, the issue of slow vaccine implementation in Europe still has a chance to weight on the Euro exchange value in a middle-term level. The traders are now worrying the tension between the European Union and England.
