GBPUSD: Everything is gradually revealed before the new news!
It is important to note that Fed Chair Jerome Powell recently stated that the economy still requires a slowdown and weakening labor market in order for inflation to confidently reach the 2% target. Additionally, the latest macroeconomic data from the United States indicates a remarkably resilient economy, leaving room for one more 25 basis points rate hike by the Federal Reserve in either September or November. This further supports the high yields seen in US Treasury bonds and reinforces the strength of the US dollar.
Furthermore, a generally negative risk sentiment, as evidenced by a decline in US equity futures, further enhances the safe-haven status of the US dollar. However, at least for now, any downside pressure on GBP/USD is mitigated as markets have already factored in two additional interest rate hikes by Bank of England before year-end due to persistent price pressures. As such, all eyes will be on Thursday's crucial BoE monetary policy meeting as it remains an area of focus.
