British Pound: BoE tightening expectations questioned – BBH

Elias Haddad at Brown Brothers Harriman notes GBP/USD is weaker on broad Dollar strength, even as UK PMI beats and supports expectations for a 25 bps BOE hike to 4.00% in November. He argues the swaps market is overpricing future tightening, citing below-capacity growth, weak real wages, a near-neutral policy rate and likely fiscal restraint as headwinds for the Pound.
