BoE Vote Split & CPI Projections Have Dovish Impact On GBP STIRs

STIR

The move lower in the BoE's CPI projections and alteration in the vote split provide a contained dovish reaction for GBP STIRs, although the market pulls back from knee-jerk extremes.

  • We suggested that the risk to market pricing likely laid with a dovish outcome ahead of the event.
  • SONIA futures are now -0.75 to +4.5, with the back of the whites and front of the reds outperforming.
  • BoE-dated OIS once again fully discounts a 25bp cut come the end of the August MPC, with ~58.5bp of cumulative cuts priced through ’24 vs.~54bp heading into the decision.
  • June MPC pricing now shows ~12.5bp of cuts, or 50/50 odds of a cut come the end of the next MPC meeting.
