Labour market data softer across the board at first glance
UK DATA
- Relative to the sellside previews that we have read that's a 0.2ppt downside surprise to private regular AWE and 0.1ppt downside surprise to total regular AWE.
- The unemployment rate is 0.1ppt higher (but that is less important).
- The overall tone here at first glance is that it's a softer report across the board, but we will need to look into more details to see how soft the report is.
- GBPUSD fell around 15 pips on the release (which was a bit delayed) to an intraday low of 1.2801.
