GBP/USD attempting to lift within a thin holiday market
A two-day trend break left the pound vulnerable to a deeper fall
However, loss consolidation more likely than a sharp decline
Infl. and growth concerns, BoE rate stance and political uncertainty in play
BoE rate hikes no longer viewed as GBP positive: more a brake on growth
Hawkish Fed, broad dollar gains and growth uncertainty to slow any GBP gains
Technically, two 50% Fibos hold the keys: 1.2411 and 1.2723
The retracements taken off 1.2156-1.2666 and 1.3290-1.2156 respectively
