Executive summary
The UK Consumer Price Index (CPI) report for June is set to be released at 0600 GMT today, with analysts predicting a marginal decline in annual inflation rates. The report is not expected to significantly influence the Bank of England's (BOE) monetary policy outlook, particularly in light of ongoing geopolitical tensions.
The UK Consumer Price Index (CPI) report for June is scheduled for release at 0600 GMT today. Analysts predict a slight easing in inflation rates, with the following median estimates:
- CPI: +0.1% month-on-month (Prior: +0.2%)
- CPI: +2.7% year-on-year (Prior: +2.8%)
- Core CPI: +0.2% month-on-month (Prior: +0.3%)
- Core CPI: +2.5% year-on-year (Prior: +2.6%)
The anticipated decline in annual inflation is primarily attributed to lower petrol and diesel prices. Analysts from Barclays highlight that transport services and package holidays are key components contributing to this deceleration. However, there are concerns regarding volatility in airfares, which could negatively impact core inflation figures.
Despite these developments, the report is not expected to significantly alter the Bank of England's (BOE) monetary policy outlook, especially in light of renewed geopolitical tensions, particularly the US-Iran conflict. Analysts suggest that the BOE will need to remain cautious as risks to the inflation outlook persist.
Looking ahead, ING forecasts that inflation may rise in July due to increases in household energy bills, but it is expected to peak below 3.5% this summer. Currently, traders are pricing in approximately 40 basis points of rate hikes from the BOE by the end of the year, with the first full 25 basis point hike anticipated in November.
