Theresa May’s talk of a Brexit delay has boosted the pound. I talk to NAB’s Gavin Friend about that, Jerome Powell’s testimony and what else is driving the markets today.

China US trade deal seems close and no-deal Brexit even less likely now, possibly even a second People’s Vote. NAB’s Rodrigo Catril on two significant developments on today’s Morning Call podcast.

NAB’s Ray Attrill on the last chance to push back that March 1 tariff deadline. The Fed’s talk of average inflation targeting. And Brexit – could it be pushed back two years?

Is Aussie coal being blocked in China? Unconfirmed reports hit the Aussie hard. I ask NAB’s David de Garis if it’s an overreaction.

US stocks continue to rise but, as I discuss with NAB’s Rodrigo Catril, uncertainty remains over the China trade talks and there’s clarification needed from the Fed’s thinking in tomorrow’s minutes. The pound does well on strong jobs and wage numbers.
