Near-term: Leans LOWER conviction 46% · 636 up vs 1600 down scenarios

GBP/USD leans lower near-term — high conviction. Of the 2,236 mapped scenarios that move GBP/USD, 636 push it up and 1,600 push it down, and weighting each by its probability, size and how soon it bites, the book skews lower. The lead driver pushing GBP/USD lower is DXY melt-up triggers an EM sudden stop and reserve drain (30% likely, ~1.2% on GBP/USD). Regime backdrop: Hawkish Fed (3.50–3.75%, dot-plot leans to a HIKE), firm dollar, active US–Iran/Hormuz conflict, AI-led equity pullback.

What flips the down-lean: Structural dollar-bear cycle sparks a broad EM-FX renaissance (35% likely).

Probabilistic, scenario-weighted read from the library + the current regime — informational, not investment advice. A lean is a tilt in the odds, not a promise.
