Overall, GBP/USD is trending downwards.
The UK Retail Sales m/m data (Actual: 0.5%, Forecast: -0.2%, Previous: -1.3% revised from -1.4%) released last Friday indicated a rebound in consumer spending in June mainly driven by sales coming from food stores likely due to the start of the Euro 2020 football championship.
The UK flash PMI data released last Friday indicated a slowdown in business activities in July due to shortages of labours and materials.

- Flash Services PMI (Actual: 57.8, Forecast: 62.1, Previous: 62.4 revised from 61.7)
