CPI y/y - (GBP) - 14/07

 

What is it? This is considered the UK's most important inflation data because it's used as the central bank's inflation target. Consumer prices account for a majority of overall inflation. Inflation is important to currency valuation because rising prices lead the central bank to raise interest rates out of respect for their inflation containment mandate. The average price of various goods and services are sampled and then compared to the sampling done a year earlier.

When? At 4:30am Eastern Time.

Trading Tip: If the actual number is higher than the forecast, you can expect the GBP to rise.
