STIR: Just Over 65bp Of BoE Cuts Priced For '25

STIR

GBP STIRs little changed to a touch more dovish vs. levels that prevailed late Wednesday as Bund futures tick higher, although FI volumes are light to start the day.

  • BoE-dated OIS flat to 1.5bp more dovish across ’25 contracts, 66bp of cuts priced through ’25.
  • 22bp of cuts priced for next month, with a cumulative 26bp of easing priced through March and ~40.5bp through May.
  • We continue to look for a 25bp cut in both February and May
  • SONIA futures +0.5 to -0.5, with some of the post-settlement downtick unwound.
  • Macro & cross-market cues are set to dominate today, weekly jobless claims from the U.S. headlines the data calendar.
  • Looking slightly further ahead, Friday will bring the release of the flash PMI data. Markets could prove to be increasingly sensitive to that data given downside risks to UK economic growth.
