Let’s see what drives the market on April 24.
There are good and bad news from the US. The bad one is that 4,427,000 Americans lost jobs. In total nearly 26 million people were fired because of the coronavirus.

The monthly UK retail sales dropped dramatically by 5.1%. It was the largest fall over 30 years since records began. Most analysts anticipate the indicator to decline further in April by 20-30%. GBP is under the huge pressure now.
