GBP/USD backslid into familiar near-term lows on Wednesday as tepid market flows bolstered the US Dollar.

Rate cut hopes slowly bleed confidence on data-thin Wednesday. Risk-off market flows take a step higher, but remain subdued amid low-tier data. The latter half of the trading week kicks off a flurry of top-tier data releases. The Pound Sterling remained pinned on the low side as the pair struggled to stay above 1.2600. Wednesday brought little of note in scheduled releases, with the UK absent from the economic calendar and US New Home Sales Change in May clocking in a -11.
