Image © Adobe Images Pound Sterling may be set to play 'Thomas and Firends', as the 'Spaceman' Sends, for Graceful and New to send or bend a Fountain of Love from above, for many and just a handful or few; which might see GBP/USD rising from 1.33, to 1.44, next door as the author itself, and an Elf, step onto a sort of illuminated dance floor.

Image © Adobe Images The Pound to New Zealand Dollar exchange rate ( GBP/NZD) opens the new week with a strong bid, rising by half a per cent on the day to reach 2.2443. This gives NZD buyers the best rate of exchange in two weeks and indicates that a consolidative pullback is ending and that Sterling is turning higher again. A look at the daily chart shows GBP/NZD spiked to above 2.32 in early April as markets baulked at U.S. tariffs, which were far more punitive than the market was expecting.

Image © Adobe Images The new week sees the Pound-to-New Zealand Dollar exchange rate (GBP/NZD) itching to break to new highs. At 2.2743, GBP/NZD is at its highest since March 13 (2.2754), and rolling back the calendar will show that anything above here was last seen in December 2015. These are therefore strong levels for NZD buyers, and there is some benefit in waiting to see whether the coming days unveil fresh strength.
