Probability

42%

GBP/USD stands at 1.3387 on July 14, 2026 (+0.29%). Reaching 1.3500 requires ~+0.84% over 8 trading days. Drivers: (1) US CPI for June 2026 came in at 3.5% YoY vs. consensus 3.8% — dollar weakness supports GBP; (2) Burnham's inauguration as PM on July 20 signals political reset and reduces uncertainty premium; (3) UK-India FTA is in force. Existing open predictions 'GBP/USD above 1.3450 on July 18' and 'above 1.3500 on July 31' form a consistent staircase. Main risk: Iran-US escalation triggers USD safe-haven demand.
