SUMMARY
  • Persistently excessive inflation has startled the BoE into extending its hiking cycle. Though the median is sticky, it may welcome signs of softening mean expectations.
  • Wage settlements have risen to especially problematic levels in the UK, creating widespread cost growth. Firms still plan to pass this on and restore margins.
  • The BoE must still break the second-round effects from resistance in real wages and margins. At least moderated pricing plans don’t appear as internationally unfavourable.
