No Lasting Impact From UK GDP, Just Over 45bp Of '24 BoE Cuts Priced

STIR

SONIA futures quickly reverse the initial move lower that was driven by the firmer-than-expected GDP data, last flat to -1.0.

  • BoE-dated OIS is little changed vs. yesterday’s closing levels, showing 50/50 odds of a cut at the August meeting and ~46bp of easing through year end.
  • While we don’t see today's GDP release as a meaningful market mover, we have noted that overall activity data is holding up much better than consensus and the BoE expected.
  • June’s CPI data provides the next meaningful domestic release of note, scheduled for Wednesday.
