GBP/USD FALLS AMID POWELL’S COMMENTS, STRONG US PMIS

· Views 23


  • GBP/USD falls 0.74% to 1.2535, influenced by Powell's rate stance and strong US jobs data.
  • Powell's emphasis on inflation control tempers early rate cut expectations.
  • US Nonfarm Payrolls' substantial job growth supports optimism for the US economy, boosting the Dollar.
  • Rising US Treasury yields post-Powell and solid economic data prompt Fed rate cut reassessment.
  • UK services sector's positive start overshadowed by US monetary policy and economic outlook focus.

The GBP/USD tumbles in the mid-North American session trade with losses of 0.74% and exchanges hands at 1.2535. Factors like last Friday's US economic data and over-the-weekend comments of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell keep the US Dollar bid amid a risk-off impulse.
