Pound slumped over the fears of vaccination.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Pound Sterling slumped over the backdrop of the negative prospect for the AstraZeneca\u2019s vaccine, which dialled down the market optimism toward the vaccination progress in United Kingdom while spurring bearish momentum on the Pound Sterling. According to BBC, more than 10 people have died from unusual blood cots after getting the Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine in UK. In total, 30 people out of 18 million vaccinated had these clots. Market participants concerned that the UK authorities might restrict the usage of the AstraZeneca vaccine in future, which could be slowing down the vaccination program in UK. Nonetheless, the Medicines and Healthcare Product Regulatory Agency said the benefits continue to outweigh any risk. Nonetheless, investors would continue to scrutinize the latest updates with regards of the Covid-19 vaccine development in order to receive further trading signal. On the economic data front, U.K. Construction Purchasing Manager Index (PMI) notched up significantly from the previous reading of 53.3 to 61.7, exceeding the market forecast at 54.6 while limiting the losses experienced by the Pound Sterling. As of writing, GBPUSD depreciated by 0.02% to 1.3725.<\/p>\n
