GBP/USD Forecast: Pound Sterling remains fragile

GBP/USD struggles to stage a rebound and trades in a narrow channel at around 1.3350 after closing the previous four trading days in negative territory. As investors await the key September Consumer Price Index (CPI) data from the United States, which will be published on Friday, the technical outlook suggests that the bearish bias remains intact.

On Wednesday, Pound Sterling came under bearish pressure after the data from the UK showed that the annual inflation, as measured by the change in the CPI, held steady at 3.8% in September. This print came in below the market expectation of 4%. Read more...

GBP/USD stays slightly offered below 1.3600

Following an initial drop to fresh six-day lows, GBP/USD now picks up some updside traction and trades in levels just shy of the 1.3600 barrier on Thursday. The generalised cautious tone among market participants continue to underpin the Greenback ahead of Friday’s data releases and the Fed Warsh’s speech.

EUR/USD struggles for direction around 1.1650

EUR/USD gyrates around the 1.1650 region amid the absence of clear direction and following an earlier drop to the 1.630 area. The pair’s vacillating mood comes in response to the equally irresolute price action in the US Dollar as investors warm up for the release of the NFP Annual Revision and the speech by the Fed’s Warsh at the Jackson Hole Symposium, both events due on Friday.

Gold recovers $4,600, buyers unwilling to give up

Gold adds to Wednesday’s pullback, although it manages to pick up some pace and come closer to the $4,600 mark per troy ounce on Thursday. In the meantime, the yellow metal remains on the back foot despite the widespread caution and the lack of clear direction of the US Dollar.

Ripple rebounds as whales accumulate 460 million XRP

Ripple (XRP) holds above $1.40 support on Wednesday, as bulls return to take control following three consecutive days of declines. The remittance token’s upside appears capped at $1.50 while extended gains would face additional resistance at $1.70. A break above $2.00 would mark a potential regime shift from bearish to bullish.

Diesel’s record $100 warning: The oil shock hiding in plain sight

Kevin Warsh’s Jackson Hole dilemma: Say too much, too little, or just enough

Kevin Warsh is preparing to deliver his first Jackson Hole speech as Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair on Friday, and expectations extend well beyond whether interest rates will be raised or left unchanged in September.
