GBP/USD Forecast: Pound Sterling holds ground after mixed UK data After climbing to a weekly high above 1.3350 in the European session on Wednesday, GBP/USD reversed its direction and ended the day in negative territory. The pair holds its ground in the European session on Thursday and trades slightly below 1.3300.

This reading followed the 1.5% growth recorded in the previous quarter but came in above the market expectation of 1.2%. On a negative note, the ONS said that Manufacturing Production and Industrial Production contracted by 0.8% and 0.7%, respectively, on a monthly basis in March. Read more...
