BOE's Vlieghe says appropriate time for rate hike " might be as early as the coming months"

BOE MPC Vlieghe out with the current BOE mantra 15 Sept

  • continued fall in slack, rising pay pressure and household spending plus robust global growth needed for rate hike
  • risk remains that Brexit will have bigger impact on UK economy but for now wage pressure is gently building
  • UK equilibrium interest rate may be rising
  • chance of upward pressure on UK inflation

Cue GBP spike after dove Vlieghe toes the party line.

GBPUSD testing 1.3500 EURGBP down to 0.8828

Update: 1.3500 broken and stops triggered to 1.3540. EURGBP testing 0.8800

That's why I'm staying out for the moment.
