The British pound has gained ground against the U.S. dollar, with GBP/USD trading near the 1.2600 level ahead of the Bank of England’s (BoE) upcoming rate decision. Investors are closely monitoring the central bank’s stance on interest rates, which could offer further clues about the UK economy’s path amid growing inflationary pressures.

Despite mixed economic data, the BoE is expected to maintain a cautious approach, keeping rates steady for now. However, with inflation remaining above target, there is speculation that policymakers may signal a potential rate hike in early 2025. This has provided some support for the pound, which has seen modest gains in recent sessions.

The Fed’s recent comments also weighed on the broader forex market, as signals of fewer rate cuts in the U.S. have helped stabilize the dollar. The greenback remains under pressure, especially with growing concerns over the impact of prolonged high interest rates on U.S. growth.

As the BoE decision looms, traders will be looking for any signals that could steer the pound in either direction. A hawkish tone from the BoE could push GBP/USD further past the 1.2600 mark, while any dovish signals may see the pair retreat.
