🚨 MARKET ALERT — BOE RATE CUT EXPECTED!
UBS now predicts the Bank of England will cut rates by 25 bps to 3.75% on Dec 18, backed by rising unemployment, slowing wage growth, and cooling inflation.
More cuts are expected in 2026, taking rates to 3.25%, while UBS keeps a bearish GBP outlook with a target of 0.8800 EUR/GBP.

Bonds: Yields fall, demand rises
