Re: GBPUSD
In an interview that appeared in the Saturday UK Guardian, UK Chancellor Darling is quoted as saying that the UK is facing "arguably the worst" economic downturn in 60 years which will be "more profound and long- lasting" than people had expected. The Guardian article stated that Darling admitted that he had no idea how serious the credit crunch would become.
Later in the weekend Darling took the airways to "clarify" his comments saying that he was referring to global economic conditions rather than those in Britain.
He has since appeared on TV saying he meant the world.. not UK specifically, and theFT has run a piece saying he got it wrong.. but it hasn't raised a bounce... yet?? US LaboUr Day hols too I thunk..and the Cannucks are off as well?? so thin whippy trading tonight??

Re: GBPUSD
The OECD predicts that the UK economy will shrink by 0.3% this quarter, and by 0.4% in Q4 (BBC website). This would constitute a UK recession.
In the middle of last month, a major US bank wrote that "it would not be a surprise" to see GBP/USD fall to 1.5500, its average level between 1993 and
2002, in the next 12-18 months (1.3682 was the June 2001 low).

Re: GBPUSD
go spend up Wayne and help put the sparks back into Debs...
UK retailer Debenhams says it has not breached banking covenants (reported by Reuters).
Rumoured "problems" at Britain"s second-largest department-store company were flagged as a factor in cable"s fall from 1.7665.

Re: GBPUSD
Well I have another bearish pennant example that is approaching its moment of validation.The support and resistance lines are converging to an apex and the mast is significant in stature.
Note that on odd occasions these continuation patterns can and do reverse.
