Pound Pressured by Rising UK Jobless Rate

55
GBP/USD started the week steady, trading just above 1.3400 during the Asian session and holding near last week’s two-month low. The US Dollar remains soft below Thursday’s monthly peak, as markets weigh the prospects of a Fed rate cut. Although Fed Governor Waller backed a July cut, most investors expect the Fed to keep rates higher for longer due to Trump’s tariffs impacting consumer prices.

The British Pound is under pressure as markets price in a potential Bank of England rate cut in August. UK labor data showed unemployment rising to 4.7%, a four-year high, and annual pay growth slowing to 5%, the weakest since Q2 2022. This limits GBP/USD upside despite persistent inflation.

For GBP/USD, resistance is seen at 1.3535, with the next levels at 1.3580 and 1.3630. Support stands at 1.3380, followed by 1.3270 and 1.3140.
