GBP/USD retreated to 1.35, its lowest level since January, as stronger US economic data reinforced dollar demand and delayed expectations for Federal Reserve rate cuts. While short-term momentum has turned softer, GBP/USD remains up over 6% year-on-year, suggesting the move may represent a correction rather than a full trend reversal.
Traders are now watching whether support around 1.3400 holds. A break lower could accelerate downside pressure toward 1.3300, while a recovery above 1.3550 may signal renewed bullish momentum. With both Fed and Bank of England policy expectations in flux, rate differentials remain the key driver for the pair.
Discover how evolving US and UK rate outlooks, dollar strength, and key technical levels could influence the pair’s next direction in this article.
