GBP/USD Technical: Sterling torpedoed by spike in 30-year gilt yield, watch the 1.3315/3280 key support

Sterling tumbled, losing 1.2% intraday against the dollar and ranking as the weakest major currency as of 2 September, with USD/GBP up 1.1%. The 30-year UK gilt yield surged 6 bps to 5.69%, its highest since 1998, as concerns over rising UK debt widened the risk premium. Drawing parallels with the 2022 gilt crisis, GBP/USD remains bearish below 1.3460, with supports eyed at 1.3370 and 1.3315/1.3280.

Sterling Outlook Softens amid Sticky Inflation, Slowing Growth and Fiscal Strains

GBP outlook has turned bearish: Sticky inflation, slowing growth, and tight fiscal prospects tilt risks to the downside despite earlier stability versus G10. BoE likely to cut once more, then pause: After a split August 25 bp cut, a single 25 bp cut in November is plausible, with futures sceptical about further easing. Inflation is persistent and services-led: Core ~3.8% y/y; services ~5% y/y; broad pricing pressure and elevated expectations keep disinflation progress limited.
