"The seasonally adjusted Markit/CIPS UK Construction Purchasing Managers’ Index® (PMI®) registered 45.9 in July, down fractionally from 46.0 in June and below the 50.0 no-change threshold for the second month running. The latest reading signalled the fastest overall decline in construction output since June 2009. This largely reflected the steepest fall in commercial building for over six-and-a-half years, alongside a drop in civil engineering activity for for the first time in 2016. Residential construction also declined at a solid pace in July, but the rate of contraction eased from June’s three-and-a-half year low."==========

GBP (Great British Pound) Bullish
illjoker Bond, 2016.08.17 22:14
Sterling has been going for a great price since the Brexit. England has been importing massive amounts of gold since then which might be why it has been slow to gather its' strength at these phenomenal prices. It supported at its' post-Brexit lows almost exactly, a boon of confidence for bulls I'm sure.
At the moment I think the price is satisfactory to buy for the long-term as I figure it has more potential upside than downside within a 2 year period. In the moderate term I think it could go either way, plausible upside vs. plausible downside are somewhat equivalent although I think in the 3-month time frame it's likely to move up a few percentage points. In the short-term the case can be made for bulls as it pulled off a substantial intra-day rally against the US dollar.
I think one of the most risk-averse strategies for trading the GBP is to buy it against the JPY, USD and EUR by averaging down, selling positions for a profit and holding for the long-term if need be. I'm capable of tactical technical trading as well.
