UK inflation data for October will be released, providing insights into the current economic situation.
The Bank of England has already implemented 2 rate cuts as inflation slows, but the path for further rate cuts may be challenging.
Headline CPI
Headline inflation slowed from 4% earlier this year to 1.7% in September, largely due to falling petrol prices. However, concerns remain about underlying inflation pressures.
Core CPI (excluding volatile items) is expected to remain unchanged at 3.2%, while services inflation remains high at 3.9%, down from 6.4% earlier in the year.
