GBP edges up ahead of busy UK data week – Scotiabank

2025/12/15 23:56

The Pound Sterling (GBP) gained slightly against the US Dollar (USD) as markets prepare for a heavy UK data calendar ahead of Thursday’s Bank of England meeting. With jobs, preliminary PMIs, and CPI releases scheduled this week, the widely expected 25bps rate cut to 3.75% leaves room for a neutral or hawkish surprise, while market positioning continues to price in significant easing risks, Scotiabank’s Chief FX Strategists Shaun Osborne and Eric Theoret report.

Markets brace for BoE rate decision on Thursday

“The pound is up a fractional 0.1% vs. the USD and a relative performer against most of the G10 currencies as we enter Monday’s NA session.”

“The domestic calendar is heavy leading into Thursday’s BoE with jobs and preliminary PMI’s scheduled for Tuesday, CPI on Wednesday, and retail sales following the central bank decision on Friday. A 25bpt cut — to 3.75%— is widely anticipated and risk lies with the statement tone (there will be no fresh forecasts).”

“We see scope for neutral/hawkish surprise in the aftermath of the latest budget, and note that markets are pricing considerable easing into the short-term rates market with options still pricing a sizeable premium for protection against GBP weakness.”

Pictures Key Facts “One Battle After Another” boasts a nearly perfect 97 out of a possible 100 on Metacritic based on its first 31 reviews, making it the highest-rated movie of this decade on Metacritic’s best movies of all time list. The movie also has a 96% score on Rotten Tomatoes based on the first 56 reviews, with only two reviews considered “rotten,” or negative. The Associated Press hailed the movie as “an American masterpiece,” noting the movie touches on topical political themes and depicts a society where “gun violence, white power and immigrant deportations recur in an ongoing dance, both farcical and tragic.” The movie stars DiCaprio as an ex-revolutionary who reunites with former accomplices to rescue his 16-year-old daughter when she goes missing, and Anderson has said the movie was inspired by the 1990 novel, “Vineland.” Most critics have described the movie as an action thriller with notable chase scenes, which jumps in time from DiCaprio’s character’s early days with fictional revolutionary group, the French 75, to about 15 years later, when he is pursued by foe and military leader Captain Steven Lockjaw, played by Sean Penn. The Warner Bros.-produced film was made on a big budget, estimated to be between $130 million and $175 million, and co-stars Penn, Benicio del Toro, Regina Hall and Teyana Taylor.
