★U.K. Jobs Report Shows The Bar To A BoE Rate Hike Is High
Strategic Analysis // Ian Gross
"This UK jobs report suggests the Bank of England is unlikely to raise interest rates soon, even with persistent inflation. For investors, this means the cost of borrowing money in the UK will likely remain stable, impacting everything from bond yields to mortgage rates and corporate profitability. It signals a continued wait-and-see approach from the central bank."

The Big Market Report Take
Looks like the UK jobs report just reinforced what many suspected: the Bank of England isn't exactly itching to raise rates. That bar is set pretty high, meaning they'll need a lot more convincing before tightening the screws.
