From: Vahe Stepanian/db/dbcom To: jeevacation@gmai 1 .com, Cc: Paul Morris/db/dbcom@DBAMERICAS Date: 12/03/2013 10:20 AM Subject: GBP + AAPL (C] classification: confidential Good Morning Jeffrey, Hope you had a great holiday weekend. As you have likely seen, GBP is currently at a 2 yr. high vs. USD OA —1.64; see graph below). The most recent move up has been attributed to a rise in construction activity for a seventh month, the fastest pace since August 2007. I recall you mentioned in our meeting that your view is to sell GBP if it approaches 1.65. For what it's worth, our DB analysts have a bearish view on the pound. A recent (DB) FX note discusses reasons why it's tough to build a fundamentally bullish case for sterling with the market pricing the first BoE hikes by mid-2015 (well ahead of the ECB and even the Fed). We see potential for GBP to reverse to the mid-1.50s by year-end. With that said, we priced up a few options that I've included below - consider selling a call, buying a put or a risk reversal. Recognize that GBP vol. is currently relatively low (vs. historical levels).
