IS GBP HEADING FOR AN "EXISTENTIAL" CRISIS?!

This week Bank of America put out a note suggesting that investors should hedge for an “existential” sterling crisis as the British currency faces struggles usually seen in emerging markets.

What supports this pessimistic view and is it a credible argument or simply a sensational conclusion to generate broad appeal in the media?

We then shift our focus to crude oil where prices have briefly touched $120 a barrel this week as the conflict in Ukraine intensifies and the EU has agreed to pursue a partial ban on Russian oil.

Is this latest round of sanctions a big deal? and find out why the art of political deflection is well and truly underway!
