Comment:
The GBP/USD pair maintained its bid tone above mid-1.3500s heading into the early North American session and had a rather muted reaction to the UK inflation report. The global risk sentiment remained well supported by receding fears about a conflict between Russia and the West over Ukraine. This, in turn, continued weighing the safe-haven US dollar and extended some support to the GBP/USD pair.
