It is not \u201cto hike or not to hie\u201d. It is to hike by 25 or 50bps, that\u2019s the question. As well as the rate decision itself, the BoE\u2019s comments on the economic outlook and future tightening, as well as the vote split, will have a big impact on the pound. Barring a big sell-off in risk assets due to the Fed\u2019s policy decision taking first, on Wednesday, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrememarkets.com\/US\/market-news\/\"><strong>GBP\/USD<\/strong><\/a> could be heading to 1.25 if the BoE does not deliver a dovish surprise.<\/p>\n<p>An already-split Monetary Policy Committee is unlikely to be unanimous as they consider whether to step down a notch or keep going at the 50-basis-point pace. The markets are about 65% confident of a 50-bps hike to 4.0%, owing above all to high underlying inflation, stronger-than-expected wage growth and surprising resilience of the domestic and European economies.<\/p>\n<p>Insofar as the BoE\u2019s comments on the economy is concerned, it will be interesting to see if the MPC will revise its GDP expectations higher, above all due to lower gas prices. But the focus will be on the Bank\u2019s forecast of inflation. With wage pressures rising, this should keep inflationary pressures elevated, which may mean more rate hikes are needed to be front-loaded in next few meetings.<\/p>\n<p>Will the GBP\/USD rise to 1.25 in the event of a 50-bps hike and somewhat hawkish forward guidance? It may already get there if the Fed, deciding on monetary policy the day before, provides a dovish surprise. If that\u2019s the case, then the BoE\u2019s decision might further fuel the rally.<\/p>\n<p>But given that the exchange rate has already been appreciating , the bigger risk is if the Fed and BoE do not confirm to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.xtrememarkets.com\/US\/\"><strong>market<\/strong> <\/a>expectations and our base case scenarios. If the Fed is more hawkish or the BoE more dovish and more split than expected, then this could see GBP\/USD correct back towards 1.21 and possibly lower.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Bank Of England Preview The Bank of England has a decision to make tomorrow.
