Past

What happened

Cable dropped to 1.3517, giving back 75 pips as the dollar firmed post-PPI. UK had no major data to counter the move.

Why

Why it matters

Sterling is caught between a hawkish BoE stance and broad dollar strength; the pair is trading on US macro, not UK fundamentals right now.

Watch

What to watch

UK employment data due Thursday -- a soft labor market reading could accelerate GBP weakness toward 1.3450.
