Haldane: If inflation expectation keep on picking up from here it would be a concern

How the BOE cut affected inflation expectations

  • The stimulus last August helped lift long-term inflation expectations

  • Stimulus removed the lower tail of expectations

Carney

  • There is some market expectation of tightening in the next few years

  • We will not hesitate to change mon pol if we judge it appropriate

  • BOE's agents survey shows wage growth may decelerate this year

  • Weaker wage growth may be reflective of economic uncertainty and greater employer bargaining power

McCafferty

  • It's clear interest rates will remain lower for longer than expected

  • BOE is some hope that we can start to see interest rates moving back to normal over the forecast horizon

Once more, a non-hawkish comment from a hawk.
