UK Gilt Yields suggest slow recovery in GBP/USD pair - FXStreet

Key Quotes
"Sharp gains in the GBP/USD pair are unlikely as the gains in the Gilt yields are likely to be capped around 2.25%."
"On the other hand, the Treasury yields are more likely to rise since the Fed is relatively hawkish when compared to the BOE."
"However, the GBP/USD pair is oversold and a technical correction coupled with a modest rise in Gilt yields could push the pair closer to 1.58 levels."
"Moreover, the surge in Gold prices witnessed in last few sessions indicates a possibility of correction in the US Dollar against other major currencies. Thus, losses in the GBP/USD pair are likely to be capped around 1.555 levels."
