Weekly Round Up
Sterling has fluctuated significantly as unsuccessful Brexit negotiations continued throughout the week increasing the chance of a no-deal Brexit. European Commission President, Ursula von der Leyen stated on Thursday that a no-deal situation is now more likely than not.
The resulting impact has seen the FTSE 100 fall 0.8% at the open on Friday, following a relatively flat trading week in which investors continue to brace themselves for news coming out of Brussels.
