UK Markit/CIPS March construction PMI data now out 4 April

  • 51.4 prev

Ouch, a big miss but it's only PMI and for a sector that means little to UK GDP as per my preview.

Bigger fish to fry out there right now and GBPUSD dips a little to 1.4073 but still underpinned for the moment. Sellers poised 1.4100 and 1.4120 again though.

EURGBP back to 0.8735 after failing into the next tranche of offers/res at 0.8750.
