Sterling soars against the Aussie Dollar

1 minute read

A significant drop in stocks and oil has impacted a basket of currencies.

Oil prices fell by 30%, Japan’s Nikkei 225 index dropped 5% and Australia’s ASX 200 experienced its biggest daily drop since 2008, falling 7.3%.

Sterling is up against the Aussie and a host of other commodity driven currencies, such as the Kiwi and the Canadian Dollar, as oil prices have plummeted over threats of a price war between OPEC and Russia. The spread of the coronavirus over the weekend has affected worldwide confidence in the markets as well.
