The GBP/USD pair is currently experiencing an upward trend, trading above the mid-1.2900s, largely due to a weakening US dollar. The pair’s performance is influenced by the expected Federal Reserve’s decision. The market fully expects a 25 basis point interest rate rise, but the key to the foreign exchange market direction will be whether expectations for another rate hike firm or recede based on the guidance. On the technical front, the pair has seen a pullback from its recent highs, but the overall trend remains one of dollar weakness.
