The GBP/USD pair has managed to surpass the weekly resistance of 1.2600. A firmer upside move in the opening trade by the US dollar index (DXY) has weakened the pound bulls. The pair has remained stronger this week as the greenback was underperforming against the pound amid a risk-on market mood.
The risk appetite of the market participants has improved significantly as the global economy has discounted two more 50 basis points (bps) interest rate hikes, which is likely to be announced by the Federal Reserve (Fed) this year. The DXY has tumbled below 102.00 after printing a 19-year high of 105.00 on May 13. The asset has erased more than 3.20% from its recent high.
On Wednesday, the DXY witnessed some gains after the release of an extremely hawkish Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) minutes. The minutes from the FOMC dictated that all members were in favor of a 50 bps interest rate hike and they believe that a couple of more similar hikes are appropriate to bring price stability.
In today’s session, investors will focus on the release of the US Gross Domestic Product (GDP). The annual GDP numbers are expected to remain stable at -1.4%.
In the pound zone, the UK delivered a poor show on the PMI front. The Services PMI landed at 51.8 vs. 57.3 as expected while the Manufacturing PMI was recorded lower at 54.6 vs. 55.1 forecasts.

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.
