Sterling fell to a 10-day low against the dollar on Monday after the US and China agreed at the G20 summit in Japan to restart trade talks. The pound slipped about 0.3% to $1.2656.
Sterling was still down about 4.5% since early May.
Renewed US-China trade talks reduce safe-haven demand for the dollar and lift the greenback against other currencies. A firmer dollar tends to pressure US commodity export prices, though this is a modest move.
