Will the UK and US Cope with Inflation?
Every week we expect many interesting events that can shake the market.
British annual inflation rebounds from 5-year maximum
In December, consumer price inflation in Great Britain drifted away from a five-year maximum, as official data disclosed on Tuesday.
The UK Office for National Statistics informed that the rate of consumer price inflation rallied from 2016 by a seasonally updated 3% the previous month, which is in line with hopes versus November’s 3.1% soar that had been the highest inflation since March 2012.
Month-over-month, in December consumer price inflation added 0.4%, which is also in line with estimates and compared to the 0.3% leap recorded the previous month.
Core CPI, excluding energy, alcohol, food and tobacco costs tacked on at a seasonally updated rate of 2.5% the previous month, which is below estimates for a 2.6% and 2.7% soar reported in November.
In December, the retail price index jumped by 4.1% on an annualized basis versus last month’s 3.9% ascend. Financial experts had hoped inflation would match November’s outcome.

FED and BOE Make Another Attempt to Beat Inflation
The Federal Reserve (Fed) will announce its Interest Rate Decision and make a statement about the future monetary policy on Wednesday, September 21, GMT+3. After the higher-than-expected inflation numbers published on September 13, there’s almost no doubt the Federal Reserve will come up with another 75-basis-point rate hike. However, surprised by the CPI numbers, several Fed members announced the possibility of a 100-basis-point rate hike on Wednesday.
