Pound at week-high, dollar sinks as risk-on mood cautiously holds
SINGAPORE - Risk-sensitive currencies such as the Aussie and yuan rallied on Thursday as investors cheered the announcement of U.S.-China trade talks for next month and abandoned safe haven assets such as yen.
The early-October talks will be held in Washington, China’s commerce ministry announced, following a phone call between China’s Vice Premier Liu He, U.S. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin and U.S. Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer. “We’ve seen markets hold up relatively well overnight, this news has injected a fair amount of optimism in markets,” said Prashant Newnaha, senior rates strategist at TD Securities in Singapore.
That still leaves Brexit up in the air, with possible outcomes ranging from a no-deal exit to abandoning the whole endeavour, prompting some to sound a note of caution.
