GBP/USD: Is there a chance for a price increase?

This image is no longer relevant

Market players actively look out for a GBP/USD rally, as various economic uncertainties remain worldwide. An example of this could be the appointment of Jonathan Haskel as the Bank of England's new interest rate regulator.

In a recent statement, Haskel said there could be a further increase in the bank's rate as the labor market remains strained despite challenging circumstances and some indicators pointing to a weakening situation. This only means that inflation could worsen, albeit limited as firms start to raise prices.

However, most players shift to safe-haven assets such as dollar in times of economic uncertainty, accordingly resulting in a decline in the pair. And as markets also hope for a resolution regarding the US debt ceiling issue, GBP/USD could show an increase on the weekly chart, but it will not last very long.
