UK GDP causes GBP move
On a month-on-month basis the United Kingdom gross domestic product has increased by 0.5%, instead of the market consensus forecast of 0.4%. The higher than forecast GDP revealed that the Bank of England has room for interest rate hikes. Due to that reason, the Pound surged against peer currencies. The GBP/USD surged nearly 34 base points or 0.27%.
