Pound Sterling rebounds in the aftermath of US court's verdict against Trump's tariffs
Thursday, 29 May 2025 15:35 WIB | GBP/USD |Poundsterling

The Pound Sterling (GBP) recovers early losses against the US Dollar (USD), after hitting a bottom of 1.3415, and trades flat around 1.3470 during European trading hours on Thursday.

The GBP/USD pair rebounds as the US Dollar surrenders a chunk of its initial gains, as the United States (US) Court of International Trade's verdict against President Donald Trump's tariffs increases economic uncertainty further.

The event also seems critical for business owners, who started designing their procurement strategies, considering Trump's levies as the new normal for the global economy.

The US Dollar Index (DXY), which tracks the Greenback's value against six major currencies, is up only 0.25% around 100.10, which went around 100.50 earlier in the day.

Earlier in the day, the US Dollar (USD), bond yields, and US equities gained sharply after the Manhattan-based court blocked Donald Trump from sweeping most tariffs.

The court condemned Trump's usage of the Carter-era International Emergency Economic Powers Act (IEEPA) to justify his international agenda, quoting it as exploitation of the president's authority. The court has ruled out import duties announced by him on the so-called "Liberation Day", while sector-specific tariffs such as automobiles, metals, and semiconductors are intact.

Meanwhile,  a 10-day deadline has been issued by the court to the administration for a permanent injunction of Liberation Day tariffs, to which the White House appealed soon after the decision.
