    GBP/USD

    • The GBP/USD pair shows some resilience on Friday and stages a solid bounce from sub-1.2400 levels. The pair, however, retreats a few pips from the daily high touched during the early North American session and currently trades around the 1.2440 region, up nearly 0.25% for the day.
    • The risk-on impulse – as depicted by a generally positive tone around the equity markets – prompts some profit-taking around the safe-haven US Dollar, especially after the recent run up to a nearly two-month high. This, in turn, is seen as a key factor lending support to the GBP/USD pair, though the upside potential seems limited. Firming expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will keep interest rates higher for longer, along with the latest optimism over the US debt ceiling deal, continue to push the US Treasury bond yields higher and favour the USD bulls.

Meanwhile, the 20 SMA started turning south and heading towards longer ones, suggests bears not exhausted yet. On upside, the immediate resistance is 1.2545 with a break above it exposing to 1.2600.

In fact, Dallas Fed President Lorie Logan said on Thursday that the economic data points so far don’t justify skipping a rate increase at the next policy meeting in June.
