The British pound is underperforming against its peers as the GBP/USD pair holds steady at 1.3426, despite a broader decline in the US dollar.

Market sentiment has improved with a drop in oil prices following hopes of a US-Iran agreement to restore shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, easing inflation risks and rate hike expectations.

The Bank of England's cautious stance, reinforced by last week's policy meeting, continues to weigh on the currency, with markets scaling back expectations for 2026 rate hikes.
