GBPUSD 8th SEPTEMBER 2022

The poundsterling fell nearly 1% to US$ 1.1403 which was the lowest level in March 1985, based on Refinitiv data. So far this year the pound sterling has fallen by 15%.


Inflation in the UK which skyrocketed 10.1% year-on-year (yoy) in July triggered the poundstelring's decline.
With the value of the pound sterling falling, there is a risk that inflation will get higher. The Bank of England (BoE) will certainly continue to aggressively raise interest rates. Currently, the BoE interest rate is 1.75%. Many analysts see that the interest rate will continue to be raised until it reaches 4% in the first half of 2023.
