GBP/USD: CBI manufacturing survey soft in January – Scotiabank
Source Fxstreet
The CBI’s January survey of manufacturing was generally morose, Scotiabank’s Chief FX Strategist Shaun Osborne notes.
GBP little changed on the session
“It revealed a small improvement in still weak orders, some improvement in still weak output and a further slide in the quarterly business optimism reading that likely reflects concerns about the government’s fiscal plans and the recent market volatility associated with them. Sterling is holding little changed on the day and over the week so far, however.”
“Cable continues to grind out some gains on the USD on the charts after basing at 1.21 last week but progress is slow towards key resistance (and potential bull trigger) at 1.2415/25—retracement and trend resistance. Support is 1.2325.”
