Sterling Slips Below 1.3300 as BoE Holds Rates, Cheaper Oil Masks Inflation

The British Pound fell to its lowest since early April after the Bank of England held rates as expected, with a second MPC member voting for a hike. Lower crude oil prices are masking inflationary pressures.

The British Pound extended its decline on Thursday, sliding through the 1.3300 handle to hit its weakest level since early April. The move came despite the Bank of England delivering a hawkish hold, as widely anticipated.

The Monetary Policy Committee’s vote split widened, with a second member joining the push for a rate increase. However, the currency came under additional pressure as cheaper crude oil continues to obscure the inflation pipeline, reducing the perceived urgency for tighter policy.

Sterling is now trading near the bottom of its recent range, with traders awaiting further data to assess the BoE's next steps.
