GBPUSD tends to decrease when it encounters resistance
On Friday, the British Pound (GBP) continues its rebound, driven by encouraging UK Retail Sales figures for November. The Office for National Statistics (ONS) revealed that retail spending by households defied expectations by staying positive compared to the previous year, contrary to market predictions of a significant decrease. The robust performance in Retail Sales was primarily fueled by a 2.8% rise in non-food retail stores, which offered substantial discounts during the Black Friday Sale.
The significant rebound in the Pound Sterling indicates that investors have overlooked the pessimistic Q3 Gross Domestic Product (GDP) revision, indicating a 0.1% contraction. This has heightened concerns about a potential technical recession in the UK economy, especially considering the Bank of England's projection of stagnant performance in the final quarter of 2023.
After the release of the economic data, Finance Minister Jeremy Hunt said that “The medium-term outlook for the UK economy is far more optimistic than these numbers suggest".
