GBP

On Thursday, the Bank of England raised its base rate by 25 basis points, as expected.

USD

On Wednesday, the market focused on the incoming inflation data from the US, which was rather negative for the US dollar.

And what's in store for the current trading week?

We do not expect any central bank meetings this week. The market's attention will be focused mainly on Tuesday's UK labour market data, due at 8am.
