Key takeaways:
The current energy shock looks more like 2011 than 2022 in magnitude.
Currently see a high bar to hiking.
Holding policy steady preferable until impact of energy shock becomes clearer.
UK faces low risks of inflation becoming unanchored given weakening labour market and slowing wage growth.
If disruptions persist and shock grows, MPC will face tougher choice between high inflation and weaker growth.
If shock mild or short-lived, could allow for more rate cuts once risks diminish.”
