I'm curious about the impact of UK's GDP data on currency exchange rates. Did it cause any significant fluctuations? If so, which currencies were most affected and how did they respond to the release of this economic indicator?

Similarly, the Pound's performance against the US Dollar (GBP/USD) also showed signs of distress. Although the exact rate was not mentioned, it is implied that the Pound faced pressure and likely declined against the Dollar as well.
