Datanotes Daily Monitor Chartbook
- In one line: Manufacturing output to remain weak in Q4.
- In one line: Tax-hike speculation to continue dragging on house prices in Q4.
- The Government’s U-turn on hiking income tax shows that the political situation is deteriorating…
- ...So, we raise our forecast for the 10-year yield to end 2025 at 4.65%, and the 30-year at 5.45%.
- Risks to yields are upward as a potential Labour Party leadership challenge increases the pressure to spend.
- October headline inflation slowing in line with the MPC’s call keeps a December rate cut nailed on.
- We think erratic factors contributed to the decline in services inflation, and it will partly rebound.
- So, we forecast that CPI inflation will hold at 3.6% in November and 3.7% in December.
- Our inflation forecasts factor in a 5% utility price cut in April and maintaining the 5p emergency fuel-duty cut.
- Rumoured Budget measures could cut 2026 inflation 40bp more than we assume, but will be hard to afford.
- The Budget will likely affect inflation little via demand, after the Chancellor ditched an income tax hike.
- In one line:Weak growth seals a December rate cut, but be careful because underlying growth is better than the headline.
- In one line: Car production shutdown tanks exports, but that will unwind in October and November.
- In one line: REC survey shows stabilising jobs market, suggesting weak official payrolls will be revised better.
- In one line: The spectacle of months of tax speculation takes its toll, but house price inflation should recover after the Budget.
- The Chancellor ditching an income-tax hike means more back-loaded and shakier fiscal consolidation.
- The government will also likely have to pare back its plans to cut energy utility prices by £200 per year.
- Back-loaded and smaller tax hikes reduce the need for MPC rate cuts in 2026 and raise gilt premia.
- Q3 growth undershooting the MPC’s forecast all but seals a December rate cut…
- …But GDP will likely rebound strongly in October and November as erratic industrial drags unwind.
- Growth is far from spectacular, but it seems to be trended only a little below the UK’s potential.
- We expect CPI inflation to decline to 3.5% in September, but only just on the rounding.
- Utility-price and airfares base effects cut inflation, but we face unusually large two-sided risks this month.
- Quarterly public rent resets, foreign-student tuition-fee hikes and food prices could surprise our forecast.
- In one line: Fiscal worries begin to weigh on consumer spending.
- The labour market report was dovish, as it showed employment falling and wage growth easing sharply.
- Weak jobs all but seal a December Bank Rate cut; we are close to forecasting another in spring 2026…
- …But surveys are stable, and we have doubts about the sharp rise in the unemployment rate.
- We expect GDP to rise by 0.1% in September, boosted by solid retail sales and car registrations.
- Industrial production likely cut 8bp from GDP growth in September as a cyber attack halted autos output.
- Resilient economic activity means the MPC has little scope to cut quickly in 2026, in our view.
- In one line: Dovish hold, so we are comfortable with our call for a December cut.
- In one line: Firms brush off Budget uncertainty, and steady growth should keep the MPC on hold.
- In one line: Predictable correction after the strongest September in five years, the underlying trend is up.
- The MPC’s new guidance leaves us comfortable reiterating our call for a December rate cut.
- Rate-setters also point to a slower pace of cuts next year as Bank Rate approaches neutral…
- ...And room for only one more cut after December, unless GDP growth turns out weaker-than-expected.
- In one line: Reopening after the cyber attack boosts the manufacturing PMI, but the outlook remains challenging.
