GBP/USD Stays Below 1.3200 as Hormuz Attack Boosts Safe-Haven USD

The GBP/USD pair holds a positive bias for a second day but remains below 1.3200 as a ship attack near Hormuz strengthens demand for the safe-haven US dollar.

GBPUSD

The British pound struggled to extend gains against the US dollar during Asian trading on Tuesday, with the GBP/USD pair hovering just below the 1.3200 mark. Although the pair has shown a positive bias for two consecutive sessions, it failed to breach the previous day's swing high.

A reported attack on a ship near the Strait of Hormuz has reinforced safe-haven demand for the US dollar, capping the upside for the pound. Traders remain cautious amid heightened geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, which typically weigh on risk-sensitive currencies like the pound.

Market participants are now watching for further developments in the region as well as upcoming US economic data that could influence the near-term direction of the pair.
