Pound Sterling lifted despite fragile UK economic conditions.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Pound Sterling which traded against the dollar index, lifted despite the UK economic output revealed by Official Nasional Statistics (ONS) showed a shrink in May. The monthly Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was reduced to -0.1% from 0.2%, while the economists expect the economic output in May will shrink to -0.3%. Separate economic data such as industrial production and manufacturing Purchasing Managers Index (PMI) was revealed by ONS on Thursday. The monthly reading of UK industrial production in May was reduced to -0.6% from -0.2%, higher than market expectation. According to the report, the decline was due to the fall in three of four main segments with electricity and gas being the largest contributor to the result. While the manufacturing production recorded -0.2% from -0.1%, lower than expectations of -0.5%.\u00a0 Since economists widely forecast the UK will enter into recession due to high inflation and high-interest rate, the better-than-expected GDP data for June would put the UK economy on track to avoid contraction. The pair of GBPUSD edged up as investors expressed optimism about the UK economy. Meanwhile, investors eye next week’s Consumer Price Index (CPI) for Jun to determine whether the Bank of England (BoE) will raise the rate by another half percentage of a quarter-point hike. As of writing the GBPUSD traded up by 0.06% to 1.3140.<\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil prices slipped by -0.29% to $76.91 per barrel as traders profited from taking on the previous trading session. On the other hand, the price of gold rose by 0.12% to 1962.78 after the dollar weakened due to lower inflation data announced yesterday.<\/p>\n
