Great Britain Pound Mixed as Brexit Continues to Weigh

The Great Britain pound was mixed today as uncertainty associated with the Brexit continued to weigh on the currency.

The European Union was complaining that during the Brexit negotiations Britain did not have a clear stance on many issues. As if to deflect such criticism, today the UK government released several papers detailing its view on various matters that should be negotiated with the EU. Still, concern remains that talks between the EU and Britain will be dragged on as neither side showed willingness to compromise, at least not to a substantial degree.

GBP/USD gained from 1.2861 to 1.2887 as of 14:07 GMT today. At the same time, GBP/JPY fell from 140.56 to 140.26, extending the decline that has started at the beginning of the month.
