Comment: BP/USD Is currently on the Backfoot. A modest pullback in the Pound this morning, breaking back below the 1.3700 handle. Reminder that today is corporate month end (two days before actual month end), which typically coincides with USD strength throughout the session. Additionally, the sizeable pick up in US yields with the 10Y once again reclaiming 1.5% has also underpinned the greenback.
