GBP/USD continues to strengthen for the second consecutive session, trading around 1.2870 during the Asian hours on Friday. The improved risk sentiment, driven by a stronger-than-expected recovery in US Retail Sales, has eased concerns about a potential US recession and boosted risk-sensitive currencies like the Pound Sterling.

Markets stay risk averse in Asian trading so far this Friday, as they keenly await US Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair JeromePowell’s Jackson Hole appearance for fresh hints on the central bank’s interest-rate path, especially with traders pricing in aggressive Fed rate cuts on signs of loosening labor market conditions.
Risk-off flows boost the haven demand for the US government bonds, weighing on the Treasury bond yields across the curve and thus, dragging the USD lower. The Greenback also bears the brunt of the renewed USD/JPY sell-off, following Bank ofJapan (BoJ) Governor Kazuo Ueda’s hawkish remarks before the parliament on Friday.
Ueda reaffirmed his commitment to raise interest rates if inflation stayed on course to sustainably hit the 2.0% target but remained wary about unstable financial markets. Despite the latest upswing, Gold price looks set to book the second straight weekly loss, as a Fed interest-rate cut for September is a done deal. However, Fed Chair Jerome Powell’s comments are critical to gauging the magnitude of easing expected in the coming months.
Gold price corrected roughly 1% on Thursday after the US Dollar rebounded firmly from over one-year lows against its major rivals, as risk sentiment deteriorated on unimpressive US S&P Global business PMIs and Jobless Claims data. Further, traders resorted to repositioning in the lead-up to Powell’s Jackson Hole showdown on Friday.

This ratio normally goes well during risk aversion, while it falls off during times of risk-on. If this ratio is about to turn, or at key levels where it could turn, the trader looks to the Equity indices if the risk has indeed been on and if it is about to turn as well.
When the ratio is rising, it means gold is outperforming silver, and when the line is falling, the first term is doing worse, i.e., silver is doing better. In other words, when the ratio is high, the general consensus is that silver is favored. Conversely, a low ratio tends to favor gold and may be a signal it’s a good time to buy the yellow metal. Despite the gold-to-silver ratio fluctuating so wildly, another way of using it is to switch holdings between silver and gold when the ratio swings to historically determined "extremes."
