Brazilian Real foreign exchange currency has declined more than any other currency in a month it was reported yesterday. This resulted from the government announcing it will levy a tax on certain investments in Brazilian Real foreign exchange derivatives.

The pound rose to a 6 week high in Far East trading on Wednesday as markets again focused on the lack of deal to raise The US debt ceiling and the prospect of a credit downgrade or even debt default. However sterling gave back all its gains after soft UK industrial trends to trade 0.7% down on the day.

Against the Euro sterling gained following the dip in EUR/USD and the pound is expected to follow the EUR/USD trend today.
