At 08:00 (GMT+2) August data on the consumer price index will be published in the UK. It is the main indicator of inflation in the country and determines changes in retail prices for a certain “basket” of goods and services (food, transport, utility costs, healthcare, etc.), and also has a significant impact on decisions on monetary policy. YoY, the consumer price index is expected to rise from 6.8% to 7.1%, and MoM from -0.4% to 0.7%, while the annual core value is expected to adjust from 6.9%. to 6.8%, and monthly – from 0.3% to 0.7%.
