At 14:00 today (GMT+8), the U.K. released its jobs data, which is
worse than expected. In this condition, investors should pay heed to
reversal signals on GBP/USD and GBP/JYP.To get more news about BCP GROUP, you can visit wikifx official website.
Based on the expectation that the government will support the payrolls
of over 9 million workers, the U.K.s National Institute of Economic and
Social Research estimated the subsidy amount, which indicates that the
jobless numbers will jump above 3 million and the unemployment rate will
surge to 10% by the end of the year.
However, the Monetary Policy Committee of the Bank of England
projected “the unemployment rate to rise to around 7.5% by the end of
the year”. Although the central bank assesses that “the existing stance
of monetary policy remains appropriate”, the marked increase in
unemployment rate may force the BoE to reassess its current approach and
galvanize it into expanding the current £750 billion quantitative
easing program.
A worse-than-expected employment data may hamper GBP/USD and GBP/JYP
and lead to investors positioning for the provision of more monetary
stimulus, discounting the performance of GBP against its major
counterparts.
