BOE rate cuts priced in, GBP faces headwinds
"GBP is trading on the defensive against USD and EUR. UK December CPI inflation was mixed. Headline CPI rose to 3.4% y/y vs. 3.2% in November, which was one tick higher than consensus (3.3%) but one tick less than the BOE’s forecast (3.5%). Core CPI unexpectedly printed at 3.2% y/y (consensus: 3.3%) for a second consecutive month while services CPI increased less than expected to 4.5% y/y (consensus: 4.6%) vs. 4.4% in November."
"Overall, persistently above target UK inflation suggests the Bank of England (BOE) can afford to wait before resuming easing. The swaps curve price-in over 80% odds the BOE delivers a total of 50bps of rate cuts to 3.25% over the next twelve months which is a headwind for GBP."
