Weaker data is causing a pullback in the British pound. May's GDP decline is mainly due to the industrial sector. The GBPUSD pair continues to fall and is testing local lows from a few sessions ago. At the same time, this area marks the lower boundary of the descending trend channel. A break below this support could trigger a move toward the next support level at 1.34.
