Bearing in mind that I fly on Friday morning, I am on a training course tomorrow morning and my boss is at a conference today, you can imagine the amount of work I am getting done!

15:29 24Mar09 GBP/USD: Consolidating Gains, More BoE King Comments Looming

London,
March 24. Cable is currently trading just over a quarter-cent above yesterday"s
high of 1.4650, against a big-picture backdrop of gain consolidation from 1.3844.

The latter level was last Wednesday"s low, plumbed after dire UK unemployment
data. GBP/USD was trading at 1.3955 into last Wednesday"s 18:15GMT FOMC
statement. 1.4550 was today"s Asian session base.

1.4780 was today"s European morning six-week peak, scaled on the back of last
month"s unexpected rise in annualized UK CPI inflation to 3.2%, from 3.0% in
January. A fall to 2.6% was forecast. The 3.0%+ number forced BoE Governor Mervyn
King to write another "Dear Chancellor" letter (<TGM42333>). The BoE"s CPI target
level is 2.0%. 1.4640 marks the traded low since 1.4780.

King is slated to address a House of Lords Economic Affairs Committee Hearing
from 15:30GMT, along with BoE Deputy Governor Paul Tucker and BoE Chief Economist
Spencer Dale. Outgoing MPC member David Blanchflower is due to speak at Cardiff
University later.
