“We are positioned short EURGBP in our spot recommendations portfolio targeting a move to 0.7000. Elsewhere, another large Australian mortgage lender increased lending rates by 15bp. To the extent that this restrains the housing market, it could result in rates markets re-pricing RBA easing sooner (a 25bp cut is currently priced by February next year).”
