LONDON, June 10 (Reuters) - Sterling reversed earlier losses to rise versus the dollar and euro on Thursday after data showed U.S. consumer prices climbed, while the European Central Bank maintained an elevated flow of stimulus as expected.
After touching in early London trading its lowest level in one month at $1.4074, sterling rose 0.3% to $1.4155 versus the dollar at 1445 GMT.
Versus the euro, the pound was 0.3% higher at 86.00 pence, after it touched a 10-day low of 86.42 pence against the single currency.
As economies rebound from lockdowns, U.S. consumer prices rose 5% year on year, marking the biggest annual increase since August 2008, while the ECB raised its growth and inflation projections for 2021 and 2022.

LONDON, May 14 (Reuters) - Sterling was on track for a second week of gains against the dollar on Friday, consolidating above $1.40 as the U.S. currency took a breather from a recent rally.
The pound is up 1.8% against the dollar since the start of May and is the second best performing G10 currency against the dollar year-to-date, aided by a more hawkish Bank of England, which has begun tapering asset purchases, and by Britain’s vaccination drive that has enabled a gradual reopening of the economy.
