The GBP/USD pair edged lower to near 1.3240 in Asian trading on Tuesday, extending losses below the 1.3250 level. The move was driven by renewed strength in the US Dollar, supported by market speculation that the Federal Reserve may raise interest rates again.
Traders are now focusing on upcoming US jobs data, which could provide further clues on the Fed's policy trajectory. A stronger-than-expected report would likely reinforce hawkish expectations and add to downside pressure on cable.
