A combination of resilient US economic data, expectations that the Federal Reserve will keep interest rates elevated for longer, and renewed geopolitical tensions has strengthened demand for the US Dollar. While political developments in the UK have offered some support to Sterling, they have not been sufficient to offset broader USD strength. Overall, the balance of risks continues to favor further downside in the pair.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Key Drivers<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Strong US consumer sentiment and solid retail sales continue to support the US Dollar and reinforce expectations of a cautious Federal Reserve.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Repeated rejection around the 1.3500 resistance area suggests buying momentum is fading and increases the risk of a deeper pullback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East have boosted safe-haven demand for the US Dollar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2022 Institutional investors remain cautious on Sterling, with several major market participants viewing recent gains as an opportunity to sell into strength.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Technical Outlook<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The broader trend remains vulnerable while GBP\/USD trades below 1.3500\u20131.3510. Initial support is located between 1.3320 and 1.3350. A sustained break below this zone could expose the pair to declines toward 1.3250, while resistance is seen at 1.3510 followed by 1.3555. Momentum indicators remain mixed, with RSI easing from neutral levels and MACD showing weakening bullish momentum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Risks to the View<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A more hawkish Bank of England, easing geopolitical tensions, or weaker-than-expected US economic data could weaken the US Dollar and trigger a recovery in GBP\/USD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Bottom Line<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The current macro and technical backdrop favors a cautious bearish outlook. Unless GBP\/USD regains and holds above 1.3550, rallies are likely to attract sellers, making a SELL bias appropriate over the coming one to three weeks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a
