The Pound fell this morning after UK manufacturing data was lower than expected in September.
UK manufacturing PMI came in at 55.9, expectations were a reading of 56.3, and lower than the 56.7 level recorded in August. Input cost inflation was also seen returning to a six month high during the month.
The pound continued to fall against the Dollar falling below the 1.33 level. Sterling retreated against the US currency last week after the Fed stated there is a 70% change of a rate hike in December.
The Pound is trading at 1.3288 against the Dollar and 1.1314 versus the Euro.
