Datanotes Daily Monitor Rob Wood (Chief UK Economist)

12 September 2025 UK Monitor MPC preview: hold rates, slow QT, little change to guidance

  • We expect the MPC to vote 7-to-2 vote to keep Bank Rate on hold at next week’s policy meeting.
  • Rate setters are focused on inflation which is proving persistent, while job falls should ease.
  • We look for rate setters to slow QT to £70B a year from October, with sales skewed to shorter durations.

  • In one line: Job falls ease sharply but spare capacity is still building in the labour market.

UK Datanote: U.K. BRC Retail Sales Monitor, August 2025

  • In one line: Retail spending can power another solid quarter of economic growth in Q3.

11 September 2025 UK Monitor CPI preview 2: nudging up to 3.9% in August as food prices jump

  • We expect CPI inflation to nudge up to 3.9% in August from 3.8% in July, but only just on the rounding.
  • Stronger food, motor fuel and hotel prices—boosted by an Oasis concert—should offset weaker airfares.
  • We expect CPI inflation to peak at 4.1% in September, up from 4.0% previously, above the MPC’s 4.0% call.

9 September 2025 UK Monitor Gilt yields boosted by global sell-off, inflation and fiscal risks

  • Gilt yields have soared, as yields have risen globally and the markets price in UK fiscal risk.
  • Elevated inflation expectations partly explain why UK yields have reached their highest since 1998.
  • We think market-based expectations are being suppressed by the RPI-CPI transition in 2030.

UK Datanote: UK Final Services and Composite PMI, August 2025

  • In one line: Strong growth and stubborn price pressures will keep the MPC on hold for the rest of the year.

UK Datanote: Construction PMI, August 2025

  • In one line: The PMI inches up but still remains overly downbeat.

UK Datanote: Bank of England Decision Maker Panel, August 2025

  • In one line: Stubborn wage and price pressures should keep the MPC cautious, but falling employment is a building risk.

UK Datanote: UK Car Registrations, August 2025

  • In one line: Private car registrations should continue to rise as displacement demand drives sales.

3 September 2025 UK Monitor CPI Preview 1: holding at 3.8% in August as food prices jump

  • We expect CPI inflation to hold at 3.8% in August, as a jump in food prices offsets a correction in airfares.
  • We see upside risk to our call after strong flash Eurozone food CPI inflation.
  • Gilts suffer from a global sell-off and UK-specific risks; Ms. Reeves needs to aim for proper fiscal headroom.

2 September 2025 UK Monitor Back to school: solid growth, sticky inflation, but job falls pose a risk

  • GDP growth beat consensus again in Q2, and surveys point to improving momentum so far in Q3.
  • Services inflation is proving sticky, as wage growth remains far too strong to deliver 2% inflation.
  • Job surveys were weaker than we expected but continue to point to payroll falls easing.

UK Datanote: UK Final Manufacturing PMI, August 2025

  • In one line: The fall in the Manufacturing PMI looks like a blip, sentiment should improve as tariff uncertainty abates.

UK Datanote: UK Public Finances, July 2025

  • In one line:The Chancellor will still have to raise taxes in October despite borrowing matching official forecasts.
