America's anti-corruption law deters foreign investment. Britain's is smarter.

America's anti-corruption law deters foreign investment. Britain's is smarter. The GBPUSD exchange rate helps too.

Last week, bulls and bears alike waited for $GBPUSD to correct its rally. The only thing the market gave us were shallow retracements that found support at key levels. In fact, the US non-farm payrolls report was initially met with a USD rally that gave cable its steeper correction only to give way to USD weakness later in Friday trading that took $GBPUSD higher. Can we expect fundamentals this week to once again give bulls a correction for better buying opportunities? Or will bears gain momentum? With the Bank of England “guarenteeing” more QE at its meeting this week, will $GBPUSD get the correction everyone has been waiting on?
