The Cable nosedived to $1.2350 as BOE raised inflation triggering stagflation fears in the UK
Fundamental News

EUR/USD
The Shared currency plummeted to $1.0491 before rebounding to $1.0530 in the wake of damaging data from the eurozone and ongoing concerns over the Ukraine crisis amid a rally in the US dollar.

 

GBP/USD
The Cable nosedived to $1.2350 as BOE raised inflation forecast to double digit, triggering stagflation fears while announcing a 25bps rate hike to 1%.

 

USD/JPY

The Japanese yen dropped sharply to 130.54 as US dollar rose across the board on risk aversion and higher US yields.

 

AUD/USD

The Aussie renewed  intraday low to $0.7094 as RBA sharply raised inflation projections which might  remain a burden for the households.

 

USD/CAD
The Loonie hovered around 1.2830 as investors await US-Canada Employment data later during the day.

 

USD/ZAR
South African rand slumped heavily to 16.04 as higher rates in developed markets tend to drain capital from riskier emerging markets such as South Africa, weighing on the currency.
