The Pound Sterling made gains against the US Dollar on Thursday following the release of economic data showing that factory inflation in the United States was slightly higher than expected. This, coupled with a softer US jobs report, put pressure on the US Dollar, leading to the GBP/USD pair trading at 1.3078 after hitting a daily low of 1.3031.

On Thursday, the Pound Sterling continued its recovery from the psychological support level of 1.3000, reaching near 1.3050 against the US Dollar in the North American session. The GBP/USD pair gained ground as the US Dollar corrected itself following the release of the annual US Producer Price Index (PPI) data for August, which came in below expectations.

Despite the gains made by the Pound Sterling, the GBP/USD pair faced pressure and traded near 1.3045 as the market reacted to the latest US inflation data. Economic activity released during the European session also contributed to the pressures facing the pound. It is clear that both the US and UK economic data releases are playing a significant role in influencing the movements of the GBP/USD pair.

The soft US jobs report and higher-than-expected factory inflation in the United States have been key factors driving the gains made by the Pound Sterling against the US Dollar. Investors and traders are closely monitoring economic data releases from both countries to gauge the strength of their respective economies and make informed decisions when trading the GBP/USD pair.

With the Pound Sterling continuing to make gains against the US Dollar, it will be interesting to see how future economic data releases from both countries will impact the movement of the GBP/USD pair. Traders and investors will be keeping a close eye on upcoming data releases to assess the underlying strength of the UK and US economies and make informed trading decisions based on this information.

Overall, the Pound Sterling has advanced against the US Dollar following the release of economic data that showed factory inflation in the United States was higher than expected. The soft US jobs report has also put pressure on the US Dollar, leading to gains for the GBP/USD pair. Moving forward, market participants will continue to closely monitor economic data releases to determine the direction of the GBP/USD pair and make well-informed trading decisions based on this information.
