GBP: Focus on Huw Pill speech – ING

Today's September release of UK earnings data has come in slightly stronger than expected and it looks like the downward momentum in private sector pay has started to slow. However, this data set has fallen out of favour with the Bank of England (and hence the market), ING’s FX analyst Chris Turner notes.

EUR/GBP set to continue to head lower

“More interesting today should be a 10CET panel appearance today from Chief Economist Huw Pill. The subject of the panel is: 'Reversing the great global tightening – how far and how fast?' Pill dissented from the BoE decision to cut rates in August and is therefore seen more as a centre/hawk on the MPC.”

“The market is already pricing in only a modest BoE easing cycle from here – just three rate cuts next year. And unless there is a major surprise from Pill today, that pricing can stay intact. If so, EUR/GBP will struggle to sustain a move over 0.8300/8315 now and should continue to head lower.”
