The GBP/USD pair trades in negative territory around 1.3445 during the early European trading hours on Friday. Heightened Middle East tensions and rising global oil prices provide some support to a safe-haven currency such as the US Dollar (USD) against the British Pound (GBP).

Market context: This update is relevant to GBP traders, with GBPUSD as the primary instrument to monitor for follow-through, trend continuation, or headline volatility.
