The honest read is that analysts are split on the pound, leaning slightly bullish if the US Federal Reserve cuts faster than the Bank of England, but capped by the UK&#8217;s fiscal and political noise. On our side, MAS&#8217;s small tightening keeps a gentle floor under the Singapore dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Bottom line: barring a surprise, expect more of the same.
