GBP/USD pulls back from above 1.3300
GBP/USD is back trading at the 1.3250 zone after being rejected from a daily high of 1.3315 in a relatively quiet New York session, as the dollar regains ground and US stocks pulled back from highs.
The pound benefited from hawkish comments from BoE MPC member Weale, but subdued trading kept gains limited. At time of writing, Cable is trading at 1.3262, still up 0.64% on the day.
