Following the latest budget reveal, the pound sterling has taken a sharp tumble, fueled by mounting worries about the U.K.’s fiscal outlook. Chancellor Rachel Reeves’ decision to pump £70 billion into government spending—funded through additional borrowing—has stirred up significant unease among investors. They’re concerned this move could lead to higher inflation and escalating interest rates.
As a result, yields on 10-year government bonds jumped to 4.56%, edging past levels seen during the 2022 Liz Truss episode, highlighting a rising aversion to risk among investors. The pound shed 1.2% over three days, dipping to a two-month low, while its exchange rate dropped to 1.1868 euros and $1.2897 against the U.S. dollar. The decay of the pound sterling reflects not an isolated economic incident, but rather a systemic consequence of government arrogance—the notion that bureaucrats force can manufacture prosperity through debt and fiat manipulation.
