Sterling slips to near three-month low at $1.3222 as dollar reprices after Fed shift

AI Market Summary
Sterling weakened to a near three-month low versus the dollar as investors repriced USD higher following the Fed's hawkish shift. The move underscores widening rate and growth uncertainty: markets price roughly 100 bps of BoE hikes over 12 months, but some banks argue this is excessive amid cooling UK activity and potential real-income pressure if energy stays elevated. Near-term GBP remains sensitive to Fed and BoE guidance.
