The British Pound (GBP) maintained its downward trajectory today, influenced by the UK's economic deceleration and the surging yields of US Treasury bonds. These factors have bolstered the strength of the US Dollar (USD) and consequently caused further depreciation in GBP/USD exchange rates. Anticipated additional declines are expected for this currency pair due to the Bank of England's decision to temporarily halt its interest rate tightening efforts, which has subsequently led to an increase in consumer expectations for inflation.
