GBP/USD clears some gains after Fed's decision and dot plot revision

  • Fed holds rates steady at 5.25%-5.50% as expected.
  • Dot plot indicates that most FOMC members are seeing fewer rate cuts this year.
  • As an initial reaction, the USD recovered and the pair cleared some of its daily losses.

On Wednesday, the GBP/USD cleared some of its gains following the Federal Reserve (Fed) decision to hold rates steady at 5.25%-5.50% and stands at 1.2830. What strengthened the USD is that the dot plot suggested that the members are seeing two instead of three rate cuts in 2024.

Regarding economic protections, the bank revised its Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) forecasts to 2.4% YoY from 2.6% YoY, while growth protections remain unchanged. The interest protections, via the so-called dot plot, showed an upward revision of the interest rates by the end of 2024 now at 5.1%, up from 4.6%, and for the 2025 at 4.1%, up from 3.9%. The projection for 2026 stood at 3.1%, and the longer-run rate has been revised to 2.8% from 2.6%. 

As a reaction, the USD recovered some ground following the soft Consumer Price Index (CPI) figures from May, which triggered a sharp decline in US Treasury bond yields earlier in the session. The US 2, 5 and 10-year rates cleared some losses but are still down by more than 2%.

GBP/USD technical analysis

Indicators on the daily chart significantly recovered and remain deep in positive terrain. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) moved toward 60, while the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) prints decreasing red bars, indicating a decreasing selling pressure. The overall outlook remains positive as the pair rides above the 20, 100 and 200-day Simple Moving Averages (SMA).

Upozorenje o rizicima

Izvršenje trgovinskih operacija sa finansijskim instrumentima upotrebom marginalne trgovine pruža velike mogućnosti i omogućava investitorima ostvarivanje visokih prihoda. Međutim, takav vid trgovine povezan je sa potencijalno visokim nivoom rizika od gubitka sredstava. Проведение торговых операций на финанcовых рынках c маржинальными финанcовыми инcтрументами открывает широкие возможноcти, и позволяет инвеcторам, готовым пойти на риcк, получать выcокую прибыль, но при этом неcет в cебе потенциально выcокий уровень риcка получения убытков. Iz tog razloga je pre započinjanja trgovine potrebno odlučiti o izboru odgovarajuće investicione strategije, uzimajući u obzir raspoložive resurse.
