The pound is treading water after a strong Conservative performance in local elections
LONDON — The pound is little moved on Friday morning as early counts suggest solid gains for the Conservative Party in local elections held on Thursday in the UK.
With results in 4,851 council seats plus six regional mayoral contests expected on Friday, the elections will give a good indication of how voters are feeling ahead of the general election in five weeks and may signal how big the Conservative Party’s majority will be after the June vote.

The pound, however, has failed to react strongly to early results, and by around 8.15 a.m. BST (3.15 a.m. ET) is virtually flat against the dollar, trading at $1.2935, an upward move of 0.1% from the day’s open.
