The pound could break the two-dollar barrier in coming months as investors bet that this week's shock interest rate rise may only be the first of many, analysts said last night.

The whole article.

Elsewhere in the same paper:

One person is falling victim to insolvency every minute of the working day and home repossession applications show the biggest rise since the early 1990s housing crash.

Ford review 'may spark sell-off'
Jaguar XKR at London Motor Show
Experts predict Jaguar will be put up for sale
Carmaker Ford has confirmed it has hired an adviser to carry out a strategic review of the business.
Former investment banker Kenneth Leet will advise chief Bill Ford about changes to the business, which may include the sale of ailing operations.
Mr Leet is also expected to look at whether Ford should pursue strategic alliances with other car firms.
Analysts have suggested that Ford could put its underperforming UK Jaguar unit up for sale following the review.
