At 11:30 (GMT+2), the UK will release October data on the business activity index in the manufacturing sector. The indicator is compiled from the enterprises responses about their purchasing activities and supply situations. At the same time, the attitude of purchasing managers to the current economic situation and prospects for its further development is evaluated. The value is expected to increase from 46.2 points to 49.6 points, but will remain in the stagnation zone. If the forecast proves right, the pound may fall under pressure.
