  • The GBP/USD slipped sharply from 1.3169 levels to hit low at 1.3000 in early the US Session as the pair was weighted down on growing worries about the economic and financial fallout of Britain's vote to leave the European Union.
     
  • Investor confidence was undermined by the Bank of England's warning on the economic risks of "Brexit" and its steps to ensure British banks keep lending, as well as by news of a decline in UK construction PMI.
