SONIA Markets Flat, A Little Under 50bp Of ’24 BoE Cuts Priced

STIR

Little movement in BoE-dated OIS, with just under 15bp of cuts priced through the August meeting and ~47bp of easing showing through December's MPC decision

  • SONIA futures are little changed through the blues, operating on light volume.
  • We highlighted some potential short-term limitations for further dovish repricing on Monday.
  • The latest Sunak-Starmer debate took place last night but won’t be a market mover, given the lack of fresh information and Labour’s wide lead in the opinion polls.
  • The UK data calendar is empty today.
  • That will leave participants to eye broader news flow and wider market moves for cues.
