The GBP/USD pair continues to trade at around 1.2580 during the Asian session on Tuesday.

Traders await the minutes of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting scheduled for Wednesday.
The US Dollar Index (DXY) is rising as the market returns from the holiday weekend, breaking a four-day losing streak. The DXY is trading near 104.40 and the 2-year and 10-year US bond yields stand at 4.65% and 4.30%, respectively, at the time of publication.
ANZ expects the Federal Reserve (Fed) to start cutting rates from July 2024. According to CME FedWatch Tool, there is a 53% chance of the US Fed cutting rates by 25 basis points at the June meeting. Recent remarks by Fed officials about the need to cut rates as soon as possible have undermined the U.S. dollar.
The Bank of England (BoE) will keep interest rates at current levels to address persistent consumer prices in the UK.
