In 1 hour, at 11:00 UTC, the 🇬🇧 Bank of England will announce its interest rate decision, release the MPC vote split, minutes, monetary policy report and monetary policy summary.
Markets will be watching for signals on inflation, the UK economic outlook and the future path of interest rates.
If the BoE is hawkish about the inflationary outlook of the economy and raises interest rates, it is usually bullish for the Pound Sterling (GBP). Likewise, if the BoE adopts a dovish view on the UK economy and keeps interest rates unchanged or cuts them, it is seen as bearish for GBP.
Governor Bailey’s speech will follow at 11:30 UTC, which may add extra market volatility.

In 1 hour, at 12:15 UTC, the 🇪🇺 European Central Bank will announce the main refinancing operations rate, release its monetary policy statement and announce the rate on the deposit facility.
The ECB may increase interest rates if it expects inflation to rise, aiming to bring it back down to its 2% target. This tends to be bullish for the Euro (EUR), since higher rates can attract more foreign capital inflows.
Likewise, if the ECB sees inflation falling, it may cut rates to encourage borrowing and lending, which tends to weaken the Euro.
The ECB press conference will follow at 12:45 UTC. The president’s comments may influence EUR volatility, with a hawkish tone considered bullish for EUR and a dovish tone usually seen as bearish.
