Daily Technical Analysis: GBP/USD, USD/JPY

The GBP/USD is under pressure as markets anticipate further rate cuts from the Bank of England, while the Federal Reserve is expected to implement more aggressive cuts.

News Summary:
PMI data showed UK business growth slowed this month. price pressures are waning, which could prompt the Bank of England to consider another interest rate cut. Efforts to combat inflation are showing increasing signs of success as data suggest a soft landing for the UK economy, without an economic downturn from higher interest rates. Investment projects will be put on hold until the new government's policies, especially tax policies, are clear.

2. USD/JPY Analysis:

News Summary:
The failure of USD/JPY to fall significantly below 140.25, coupled with the Bank of Japan Governor’s cautious remarks, increases the possibility of a mean reversion rebound.

The statement said that inflation expectations have risen moderately, consumption is growing moderately, and Japan's economic growth is likely to achieve growth above potential levels.
