GBP/USD Weekly Special Report based On 1.00 Lot Calculation:
● EVENT: TUESDAY, JULY 9 AT 16:00 GMT+1: US FED CHAIR JEROME POWELL TESTIMONY. Mr. Powell will testify before the US Congress regarding the US economy, inflation, GDP and interest rate policy. At his last appearance on July 2, he said that the US economy is going through a path of disinflation. If this dovish stance is reiterated at the testimony this could increase chances for the US Fed to cut its interest rates sooner than later which could strengthen the GBPUSD pair.
● EVENT: THURSDAY, JULY 11 AT 13:30 GMT+1: US CPI DATA FOR JUNE. The United States will be reporting CPI data. The US CPI has been trending lower, well below its 2022 peak of 9.1%. The most recent print showed CPI at 3.3%. Should the CPI come in lower than expected, the USD can be expected to weaken which could provide support for the GBPUSD pair.
● EVENT: WEDNESDAY JULY 17 AT 07:00 GMT+1: UK CPI DATA FOR JUNE. The United Kingdom will be reporting CPI data. The most recent print showed CPI at 2.0% which is the Bank of England’s inflation target. Should the CPI come in higher than expected, the GBP may be expected to strengthen which could provide support for the GBPUSD pair.
● EVENT: WEDNESDAY, JULY 31 AT 19:00 GMT+1: US FEDERAL RESERVE INTEREST RATE DECISION. The Federal Reserve Bank will meet on July 31, to set the Fed Funds rate target. According to the most recent estimates, analysts are expecting the Federal Reserve to hold interest rates at the current level of 5.50%, but chances have been rising for a September cut which could push the GBPUSD pair higher.
