The British pound's downward momentum looks set to continue amid cooling labor market and price pressures.

Data released on Tuesday showed a significant slowdown in macro data, with the UK Economic Surprise index falling sharply since mid-August. As a result, currency markets expect UK interest rates has peaked, meaning the BoE will keep interest rates unchanged at its meeting next week.
