At 10:30 (GMT+2), the UK will publish April data on the manufacturing business activity index. The indicator reflects the state of business activity in the national manufacturing industry based on a survey of purchasing and supply managers of leading national enterprises in all industries. At the same time, their attitude to the current economic situation and prospects for its further development is assessed. The index may fall from 50.3 points to 48.7 points, putting pressure on the pound.
