  • The broader ONS statistics revealed an increase in the UK's unemployment rate from 3.9% to 4.2%, with caution due to ongoing efforts to enhance the reliability of employment data.

  • The forthcoming inflation data expected on Wednesday is likely to demonstrate further progress towards the Bank's objectives and the potential for a decrease from the current 5.25% interest rate.
