British Pound Near Two-Month High Despite Trump’s 25% EU Tariff Threat
The British pound remained stable against the dollar on Thursday, trading at $1.2674 just below Wednesday’s two-month high of $1.2717, despite President Trump’s announcement of potential 25% tariffs on European Union goods.
Analysts suggest sterling could outperform other currencies if tariffs are implemented because of the relatively small US-UK trade deficit.
The pound is also finding support from expectations of fewer Bank of England rate cuts compared to other central banks like the ECB.
