much the gilt market and the pound where we have seen that chaos play out, we saw gilt yields go very much higher over 1t%. we also saw the pound dropped to a record low in fact versus the us dollar. we are in a very different place right now, the pound is at over 113 against the us dollar, and gilt yields have fallen below that key 1t% level. there is definitely a level of stability showing in the markets. that is probably because the markets feel that rishi sunak might be more prudent candidate and that is sort of that trust that he may be that preferred candidate to address the nation's finances. it is worth noticing that the pound has fallen off the highs and that is because we have had some data through that is showing that the business activity in the uk is contracting. thatjust highlights the dire economic position that the new prime minister

let's take a look at some of the reaction on financial markets. the pound had been under pressure on wednesday amid the political turmoil — but it rallied when it became clear liz truss was going to resign. but, as you can see, it has since fallen back. 0n the bond markets, government borrowing costs also eased. but as veteran market commentator david buik told the bbc, the uk's government borrowing costs — as seen in the "yields", or interest rates on government bonds known as gilts — are still massively higher than at the start of the year. and it will be vital for whoever takes over from liz truss to rebuild investor confidence to get those yields down. we saw gilt yields rise from 0.91% at the beginning of this year to 6.5% about ten days ago.
