I moved £500 to Wise this morning at about 1am so yeah today I got my desired rate about 20 minutes ago it triggered at 73.5134 I wonder how much higher it will go.
Excellent rate I hope it's not weakening because of the growing threat of war - civil between Duterte and Marcos or international between USA and China - their backers...
Maybe I'll be looking to get emergency travel document for my daughter and be trying to get her out of there. 73.60 a moment ago, I was thinking last night of upping my trigger point to 73.60 but I just felt it would not get there so I left it, with this momentum I can see it heading for 75 which would be a 10 year record. Puchasing power of the money though is way way less than it was 20 years ago both for the pounds and the peso.
73.73 at the moment, it remains to be seen how much higher it will go, I think 74 will be broken this week, but I have my doubts that it will reach 75 anytime soon, purchasing power of the pound here in the UK, has dropped drastically since Covid but company profits seem to be at record levels, Tesco 2.6 billion pounds profit in the last year, CEO £10 million pound salary made up of bonuses, shares and annual salary, seems to me the gap between the have's and have not's is getting wider and wider, as for Tesco we have long since stopped shopping their because of rip off prices.
Well if it stays this high I'll make a couple of ATM cash withdrawals Thursday night. Regards company profits, this what the country has voted for starting in 1979 a forty five year streak of self interest and greed, and not just here in the UK.
Are you sure, I've never known the pound to kick on following a labour win! Not that they've had that many - when I was a child it was always Harold Wilson - then we had to wait an eternity... for that prat Tony Bliar. Think it's more likely to do with the fact England are in the Euros Final... and the economy returned to growth in May
If you insist: Size of [Labour] majority means UK has most stable government in the G7 over the next five years... “We think the GBP should finally see the tide of structural flows move in its favor for the first time in the post-Brexit-vote era.” Wow... all we need now is to win the Euros and it'll be 1966 all over again
