Pound remains resilient ahead of BoE.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The pound sterling which traded against the dollar and other currency pairs continue to hold its ground while investors await key monetary policy meeting from Bank of England (BoE). The U.K. economy continues to gather pace with inflation – at 2.1% on an annualized basis. The result is running ahead of the central bank’s target, but BoE is likely to point to temporary factors boosting inflation and ongoing uncertainty in its outlook for the economy as reasons to keep monetary policy on autopilot. On the other hand, U.K Prime Minister Boris Johnson stated that the U.K will ease social restriction on July 19 as planned due to high vaccination levels from U.K citizens and the number of deaths remain at low level. At the time of writing, GBP\/USD rose 0.03% to 1.3958.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price rose 0.11% to $73.12 per barrel at the time of writing following prospect of solid oil demand. Following latest development, demand recovery has accelerated as vaccination are rolled out worldwide, boosting fuel consumption and helping to drain stockpiles that were built up during the height of the pandemic. On the other hand, gold price slips 0.20% to 1775.15 a troy ounce at the of writing following dollar strength.<\/p>\n
