The Kansas Fed head Esther George speaking on CNBC 25 Aug 2016

  • 3% GDP possible in H2
  • beginning to see US wage growth so that consumer will be able to spend
  • now is the time to raise rates gradually, we can remove accommodation
  • upcoming election should not influence Fed decisions

Bullish tones from George just helping to give the greenback another helping hand.

GBPUSD testing 1.3180 as EURGBP rallies again to 0.8564 as per my previous post. Bingo!

EURUSD 1.1285 having capped into the decent offers/res at 1.1300.

I hope you've made some pips from the info/observations.
