BoE hike rates as inflation rises.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Pound sterling rebounds sharply from lower level after Bank of England delivers a rather hawkish decision during its monetary policy meeting. On yesterday, BoE initiated a 25-basis points rate hike from 0.25% to 0.50%. The decision was announced after UK government introduced a 9 billion pound sterling program which is aimed to help reduces burden from rising cost of electric in the UK. During press conference, BoE Governor Andrew Bailey stated that rising cost of commodity especially natural gas and crude oil is the main factor that drives inflation higher. Bailey also emphasized that strong economic recovery coupled with disruption upon supply chain as well as lack of raw materials contributes to rising cost of consumer products. At the same time, BoE also announced to start unwinding its 895 billion pound sterling of quantitative easing program in order to help curb rising inflation along side with interest rate hike. As of writing, pair of GBP\/USD rose 0.05% to 1.3597.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

In the commodities market, crude oil price rose 0.04% to $90.17 per barrel following oil supply disruption in Libya and Nigeria which may worsen global supply deficit. On the other hand, gold price was up 0.01% to $1,805.19 a troy ounce due to weaker greenback.<\/p>\n
