Sterling under the bearish pressure today amid widespread sterling pessimism and safe-haven dollar inflows. The demand for safe-haven dollar exploded recently amid a global surge in coronavirus. The global rise in Covid-19 infections sparked concern among investors at the start of the week, forcing a sell-off in stock markets and a bid for bonds and the dollar, which spurred a sharp move lower in growth-correlated currencies such as the pound. The sterling is hammered down on fears that after England lifted all COVID-19 social restrictions on Monday, in what local media dubbed “Freedom Day”, this might further accelerate the surge in infections caused by the highly contagious Delta variant of the virus.
