ChainCatcher news, JPMorgan strategist Matthew Landon said in a report that the potential for the British pound to appreciate against the US dollar appears limited following the latest policy decision by the Bank of England.The Bank of England cut interest rates by 25 basis points to 4.5% on Thursday, but two of the nine members leaned towards a 50 basis point cut. This vote may reflect concerns about the weak economic growth outlook. The market currently reflects the largest rate cut since last November's US presidential election. Given the weakness in economic growth, it seems reasonable for the Bank of England to diverge more from the Federal Reserve. This "may limit the appreciation of the pound against the dollar in the short term."

ChainCatcher news, the GBP/USD exchange rate fell to a two-year low on Monday, while the exchange rate against the euro hit a new low in 10 weeks, after which the pound rose. However, Deutsche Bank analyst Michael Pfister stated in a report that the pound remains vulnerable to rising bond yields and a weak economy, and is more susceptible to these factors than the euro.He noted that the pound is no longer one of the world's major reserve currencies, so if UK government bonds depreciate, investors "would be more willing to shift their reserves to other currencies until the turmoil ends." Pfister also mentioned that the Bank of England has limited room to cut interest rates, which means that economic growth in the UK may struggle to recover, and the pound will be affected as a result.
