Pound rebound?

We are a financial center, and to some extent an oil currency, possibly the two worst things to be in the current climate, I see no near term reason for Sterling to appreciate much other than an oversold bounce. Sterlings future moves will probably be more a function of how strong or weak other currencies become rather than any strength in the pound. The Euro likely has a rough ride ahead of it since a lot of this economic crisis still has to be factored into it. I don't think there are any safe haven currencies, speculators have probably finished with Sterling for now and will move on to something else.Hope for the best.....Plan for the worst!
