Miraculous!
Value of the pound went down because the markets hate uncertainty. Because of the hung parliament no one knows what the hell is going on, thus people abandon the pound and move to other currencies until the situation has some stability.
This came to be because (A) Cameron used the promise of a referendum to get more voters in 2015 and banked on Remain winning and (B) Theresa May wanting a bigger majority in order to push through her visions of Brexit without being held back by Tory swing voters (people who could vote for or against her proposals).
Yeah, there was no majority. You need 326 to get a majority (since there are 650 seats total). Now all that remains is the parties coming to some sort of agreement and making a coalition, where two or more parties agree.
The alternative is to have another election in two months time. This comes with its own problems and it's in the Tories best interests to make a coalition. They need ten more seats and it's going to reflect badly on them if they can't form an agreement.
