๐ฌ๐ง UK Inflation Update
UK inflation fell more than expected to 3.2% in November, down from 3.6% in October ๐ โ the lowest level since March and a welcome surprise for markets. The drop was mainly driven by lower food and drink prices, including cakes, cereals, and biscuits, alongside cheaper womenโs clothing.
This softer CPI print is strengthening expectations that the Bank of England could cut interest rates soon, possibly as early as December ๐ท
Lower inflation supports household savings, eases pressure on borrowers, and could improve overall consumer confidence.
While progress is clear, inflation remains above the BoEโs 2% target, meaning policymakers arenโt done yet.
