GBP/USD: Extends gains to near mid-1.32s – Scotiabank

The Pound Sterling pushed higher to near 1.3250 in overnight trade before easing back, Scotiabank’s Chief FX Strategist Shaun Osborne notes

Cable is at risk of testing trend support 1.3200/05

“UK Gilts are underperforming moderately, giving the pound some modest yield support but the steady ramp up in Cable from the start of Asian trade suggests a buy program was behind the gains rather than anything fundamental. The BRC’s Shop Price Index fell in Y/Y terms (-0.3%) for the first time in close to three years, suggesting easing inflationary UK pressures.”

“GBP’s bull trend remains resilient after overnight gains extended to the mid-1.32s. The drift off the high is starting to look a minor negative for the pound, however, and suggests Cable is at risk of slipping back a little more intraday now to test trend support 1.3200/05. Support below here sits at 1.3125.
