GBP data better than expected sterling strength

Sterling saw early morning gains against a basket of major currencies this morning following better than expected retail sales and mortgage approvals data.

Retail sales rose by 1.2% and mortgage approvals were at a 15 month high.

Even though the Pound made gains in early morning trading the screens are now red again and the gains have already been lost - a typical pattern for Sterling on the markets this year!
