GBPUSD
The cable rallied further to $1.1633  as positive sentiment prevailed on the expectation of PM Rishi Sunak to deliver a viable plan to repair the U.K.'s public finances and steer Britain towards medium-term fiscal sustainability.

 

USDJPY
The Japanese Yen powered to 145.29 as U.S. yields hit new weekly lows ahead of US GDP data later during the day.

The Canadian dollar swirled in a roller coaster move, falling to 1.3600 against the U.S. dollar as the Bank of Canada delivered a lower-than-projected rate hike of 50 basis points but later gained to 1.3530 on broad dollar weakness.
