Brexit
GBPUSD starts in weak mode the week as the optimism around Brexit deal fades away. EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier has briefed the EU ambassadors saying that Brexit negotiations have continued over the weekend but “no breakthrough yet”. Headlines that the US and China made progress in trade talks increased risk appetite last Friday. The two sides reached a partial trade deal. China announced purchases of U.S. agricultural commodities, while the US will not implement the planned tariff hike this week.
