GBP/USD came under heavy bearish pressure and erased nearly 200 pips in less than 30 minutes after the US inflation data. The pair was last seen losing 1.05% on a daily basis at 1.1557.
The US Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that the Core Consumer Price Index climbed to 6.3% in August from 5.9% in July. This print surpassed the market expectation of 6.1%. Although the headline CPI edged lower to 8.3% from 8.5% in the same period, it still arrived above analysts' forecast of 8.1%.
The benchmark 10-year US Treasury bond yield is up nearly 3% on the day and the US Dollar Index is rising 1% at 109.35. According to the CME Group's FedWatch Tool markets are currently fully pricing in a 75 basis points rate hike in September.
The hot inflation report also weighed on risk mood. Nasdaq Futures, which was up 1% earlier in the day, is now losing more than 3%.
Earlier in the day, mixed labour market data from the UK helped the British pound find demand but the reaction to the US data clearly shows that the dollar's market valuation is the primary driver of the pair's action.

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.
