Fundamental Analysis

* Data Dilemma: Pound sterling have fell against the greenback as the market reacted to the latest inflation data from the U.S. Economic activity released during the European session seems to have added pressure on the pound. According to data, annual core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, remained unchanged at 3.2% in August, in line with market expectations. On a monthly basis, both CPI and core CPI rose by 0.2% and 0.3%, respectively, exceeding market forecasts. As a result, traders have reduced the likelihood of a 50-basis-point rate cut by the Federal Reserve, with the market now pricing in an 85% probability of a 25-basis-point cut, boosting the dollar. Additionally, the pound also weakened due to disappointing UK GDP data, which stagnated at 0.0%, falling short of the 0.2% forecast.

Technical Analysis

* Technical Breakout: GBPUSD was traded lower following prior breakout below the previous support level 1.30450. MACD which illustrate bearish momentum signal suggest the pair to likely further extend its losses.

*Resistance and Support: If the bearish momentum persists, there’s a strong likelihood that the price will potentially head towards 1.29400. Conversely, a potential reversal is also to be expected and the price could head back towards the level 1.31450 after it breach back above the level 1.30450.
