GBP/USD - ..... The British pound is nursing loss after yesterday's sharp selloff to as low as 1.5453 near New York closing on dlr's broad-based strength.
Cable staged a short-covering rebound to 1.5509 in Asian morning, however, renewed selling there pressured the pair back down to 1.5483 at European open.
