NA Session

The main move in the North American session was a weaker GBP, encouraged by BoE’s Ramsden expressing greater confidence that inflationary persistence was easing and that the balance of risks had oved to the downside. GBP/USD fell by a big figure to 1.2370. EUR/USD was dragged down to 1.0611 before recovering to around 1.0650 as EUR/GBP moved above .86.

USD/JPY held firm around 154.60 and the commodity currencies had little direction. There was no US data but the normally dovish Fed’s Goolsbee stated that the latest three months of inflation data could not be dismissed.
