The pound may be getting a bounce from the optimism that the UK could dodge President Donald Trump’s tariffs as trade headlines roil global markets, but not all is rosy for the British currency on the domestic cyclical front. In this episode of FX Moment, Bloomberg Intelligence’s chief G-10 FX strategist Audrey Childe-Freeman and Jordan Rochester, head of FICC strategy for EMEA at Mizuho Bank, discuss the pound’s position vs. peers on the tariff narrative front, UK’s near-term economic prospects and the Bank of England monetary policy outlook ahead of the Feb. 6 meeting. They also look beyond the positive dollar narrative to identify strong G-10 FX views for 1Q, with the bullish cyclical and structural yen case in the limelight at a time when defensive currency positioning makes sense.
