GBP/USD down after US CPI figures and UK GDP data

  • GBP/USD tallied another day of losses falling below 1.3050.
  • US CPI came in mixed and markets reduced the odds of a 50 bps cut.
  • Earlier in the session the UK reported weak GDP figures.

The GBP/USD pair remains under pressure, trading near 1.3045 as the market reacted to the latest US inflation data. Economic activity released during the European session seems to have added pressure on the pound.

While the headline inflation declined, annual core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, remained unchanged at 3.2% in August, in line with market expectations. However, on a monthly basis, both CPI and core CPI rose by 0.2% and 0.3%, respectively, exceeding market forecasts. The data has led traders to reduce the odds of a 50-basis-point rate cut by the Federal Reserve and the market is now pricing in an 85% chance of a 25-basis-point cut.

What weakened the GBP was the report of soft Gross Domestic Product (GDP) releases during the European sessions. Despite this, leading indicators point to a potential rebound in UK economic activity, suggesting that the Bank of England is unlikely to cut rates by more than the currently anticipated 50 basis points by year-end, which could provide some support for the GBP.

GBP/USD Technical Outlook

The GBP/USD pair's decline to 1.3045 reflects deepening bearish pressure, with key technical indicators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) pointing down near 50 and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) firmly positioned in negative territory. This suggests that bearish sentiment could persist in the short term especially if the RSI breaks the 50 barrier.

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.
