Market reaction

These figures don’t seem to be having a noticeable impact on the British pound’s performance against its rivals. The GBP/USD pair, which dropped to a daily low of 1.2865 with the initial reaction to the Bank of England’s Monetary Policy Summary, was last seen trading virtually unchanged on the day at 1.2960.
