Pound slipped after Andrew Bailey’s speech.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Pound Sterling, one of the most traded currencies by global investors, reversed from its upward trend after the governor of the Bank of England Andrew Bailey speech. Following a series of rate hikes since last year, Bailey told the members of parliament that the inflation rate of the UK is forecasted to drop sharply this year. The central bank has predicted that the inflation rate will drop from 10.5% to 4% by the end of 2023. Thus, investors increased their expectation that the upcoming UK monetary policy rate decision will be more dovish. According to a prior statement from IMF, the UK economy will enter into contraction by -0.6% in 2023, this has also led to investors expecting a more dovish stance from BoE. At this juncture, investors are waiting for more cues from the upcoming GDP report, which will be released later today. The UK yearly GDP reading is expected to have a growth of 0.4%, which is lower than the previous reading of 1.9%. As of writing, GBPUSD slipped -0.21% to $1.2096.<\/p>\n

In the commodity market, the crude oil price edged down by -0.44% to $77.72 per barrel following the strengthening position of the dollar index. In addition, the gold price slipped by -0.50% to $1869.25 per troy ounce as the markets reassessed their expectations with more interest rate hikes from the Fed.<\/p>\n
