GBP Intraday Trend Analysis   

Fundamental Analysis：

GBP/USD ended the day at $1.1681, up 0.8% on the day and above the 37-year low touched last week. 

According to data released by the UK Statistics Authority, the UK’s inflation rate reached 10.1% in July this year, a record high since February 1982, and is the first country in the G7 where the inflation rate exceeded 10%. In addition, the UK is also facing economic growth pressures. 

The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) predicted in June that UK economic growth would stagnate next year. 

The Bank of England will have a difficult choice to make between “fighting inflation” and “stabilizing growth”. Two days before the Queen’s death, Britain welcomed a new Prime Minister, Alex Truss, who pursues monetarism and is committed to helping people ease the pressure of the cost of living through tax cuts.

While promising tax cuts, Truss stressed that he would not cut public spending, which means that there is a possibility that the government deficit will widen again. 

In the short term, investors are expected to take a more cautious view of UK government bonds and the British pound.
