Whilst a classic last-minute EU fudge is still broadly anticipated by the market, the language from David Frost was not optimistic.

The euro and Sterling were on the front foot on Tuesday, with cable stretching its advance to near a 2-week peak. Whilst the dollar was offered on a broad return of risk appetite, the euro also seemed to get some lift from the ECB, which is giving signals it’s ready to do even more.
