Will the Bank of England Push the Pound Lower?

Will the Bank of England Push the Pound Lower?

The British pound (FXB) depreciated 0.95% against the US dollar (UUP) for the week ending June 15 and closed at 1.33. The pound took a backseat as the US and European central bank policy meetings dominated the forex space last week. British equity markets (BWX) posted the fourth consecutive weekly loss in the last 12 weeks, which reflected the global risk-off sentiment.
