Pound Sterling dipped as economic outlook remain clouded.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The GBP\/USD, which widely traded by global investors slumped on yesterday amid the pessimistic economic outlook in UK. According to Reuters, Britain’s manufacturers association has diminished the factory output forecast from 1.7% to 0.6%, which driven by soaring energy price and uncertainty of demand. The spiking inflation risk which caused by Russia-Ukraine conflict has threaten the consumer demand and pushed up the operating cost in UK region, which exacerbated the possibility of UK economy entering into recession. Such situation has dragged down the value of Pound Sterling. Besides, that, the GBP\/USD has extended its losses after the Fed Chairman Jerome Powell stand with its aggressive rate hike path during early trading session. However, the losses of Pound was limited following the Bank of England (BoE) was expected to hike its rate by 50 basis point in the policy meeting today, while some market participant were anticipating a higher rate hike, says 75 basis point. At this juncture, investors would continue to focus on the interest rate decision from BoE in order to gauge the likelihood movement of Pound. As of writing, GBP\/USD depreciated by 0.32% to 1.1229.<\/p>\n
