Market attention has recently been glued to the US-Iran peace talks\u2014the pair\u2019s key driver. A temporary truce between Israel and Lebanon initially raised hopes for further de-escalation, but those hopes proved to be short-lived. Today, geopolitical tensions have resumed, bringing the so-called \u201cwar premium\u201d back into prices.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The protracted conflict has taken a real toll on the UK economy. The pound is also weighed down by global instability. The Construction <a href=\"https:\/\/marketcheese.com\/indicator\/uk-construction-pmi\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Purchasing Managers&#8217; Index<\/a> (PMI) for May plunged to a six-year low of 38.2 due to a surge in energy costs and supply disruptions. Moreover, inflation remains elevated, leaving the Bank of England (BoE) in a predicament. On the one hand, a rate hike is needed to curb rising consumer prices; on the other, it could deliver a heavy blow to an already weakening economy.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>UK GDP is currently clinging to distorted seasonal data, but this illusion will soon fade as business sentiment darkens. The political crisis is only making it worse: the threat of a no-confidence vote against the Prime Minister, along with the risk that opposition figures could return to Parliament in the June 18 by-elections, is prompting investors to brace for further weakness in the pound.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Across the Atlantic, the Federal Reserve\u2019s hawkish rhetoric continues to support the US dollar. Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan has recently called for raising borrowing costs to tame energy-driven inflation, which keeps gaining momentum. Besides, the greenback benefits from its safe-haven status amid escalating geopolitical jitters.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>From a technical standpoint, GBPUSD is now moving within the 1.33635\u20131.35100 flat range. The Average Directional Index (ADX) sits low\u2014between 14 and 17\u2014signaling no clear trend. Its +DI (9) and -DI (16) lines periodically cross each other, suggesting that neither bulls nor bears have the upper hand.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Consider the following trading strategy:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Sell GBPUSD from 1.34300. Place Take profit at 1.33500 and Stop loss at 1.34860.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>The forecast remains relevant between June 5 and June 12, 2026.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Market analysis by financial analysts and experienced traders.
