GBP/USD At 5 Month Low

The Sterling continues it's bearish run as the exchange rate GBP/USD has fallen below the 5 month level. The pair is now trading around 1.3400 marking a 14 cent depreciation in a little more than a month.

The drastic drop is due to a dovish UK tone regarding economics and even more of a reason, the strengthening of the US currency. The US dollar has been plowing through all major pairs making new highs.

According to some hedge fund managers and currency experts, the US dollar rally is far from over and we are yet to see it unfold.
