UK growth lags BOE forecast
"GBP ignored the UK July GDP data. Real GDP was flat m/m vs. 0.4% in June. Services and construction output both increased by 0.1% and 0.2%, respectively. Production output plunged -0.9% driven by declines in manufacturing and mining & quarrying."
"Real GDP is tracking below the BOE’s Q3 growth projection of 0.3% q/q. Unfortunately, the BOE has limited room to dial-up easing to shore-up growth because UK services inflation is stubbornly high at 5.0% y/y. Bottom line: the UK’s soggy growth outlook and elevated underlying inflation spell trouble for GBP, especially versus EUR."
