GBP/USD Plummets as Fed Rate Hike Bets Intensify

Instruments
USD GBP

The British Pound (GBP) has seen significant declines against the US Dollar (USD), reaching near the monthly low of 1.3480-1.3470 due to a broadly firmer USD.

The drop in GBP/USD was spurred by traders' expectations of possible rate hikes from the Federal Reserve (Fed) later this week, with nearly an 86.7% chance of a quarter-point rate hike priced into financial markets.

Meanwhile, attention will shift to the Bank of England's (BoE) interest rate decision on Thursday, which could provide some impetus to the GBP/USD pair and determine its next directional move.
