GBP/USD: Drops below 1.2700 despite higher UK inflation
Wednesday, 18 December 2024 22:06 WIB | GBP/USD |GBP/USD

The pound weakened against the US dollar on Wednesday despite higher UK inflation data for November than the previous month.

This and expansionary fiscal policy could prevent the Bank of England from cutting interest rates, even though the economy has shown some signs of weakness. GBP/USD is trading at 1.2695, failing to break through the 1.2700 barrier convincingly.
