Focus on the British inflation report
Wednesday’s inflation report in Wednesday is essential for bond markets.
The data should show that the consumer price index on the head (ICC) And the basic ICC remained well above the target of 2% in July, according to the commercial economy of the data source. The CPI title should be 3.7% from one year to the next (up compared to the previous 3.6%)while central inflation should remain at 3.7% (unchanged from the previous month). Data will reach the wires only a few weeks after reducing the rates of the Bank of England to 4%.

The hardening of golden yield at 30 years, representing the long end of the curve, played an important role in the investment focused on responsibilities (LDI) 2022 retirement crisis, which broke out under Liz Truss. The longer duration yield now tests the upper limit of a long -term trend and could reach 5.7%, the highest level since May 1998.

If Wednesday’s inflation report is warmer than expected, golden yields could break new peaks, exerting additional pressure on the government and increasing the risk of another LDI style crisis.
