由于交易员对令人失望的经济数据做出反应，英国10年期国债收益率跌至近一个月来的最低水平4.4%以下。10月份零售额下降了0.7%，超出预期，PMI也低于预期，表明11月份商业活动略有下降，因为服务业大幅放缓，制造业收缩。与此同时，英国10月份的年通胀率升至2.3%，为六个月来最高，而9月份为1.7%，超过了英国央行2.2%的目标和市场预期。央行认为服务业通胀是衡量国内价格压力的关键指标，从4.9%微升至5%。大多数分析师预计，英格兰银行将在12月保持借贷成本稳定，目前降低25个基点的可能性约为14%。

The UK 10-year gilt yield fell to below 4.4%, the lowest level in almost a month, as traders react to disappointing economic data. Retail sales fell by a bigger-than-expected 0.7% in October and flash PMIs also came below forecasts, pointing to a fractional decline in business activity during November, as services slowed sharply and manufacturing contracted. Meanwhile, annual inflation rate in the UK went up to 2.3% in October, the highest in six months, compared to 1.7% in September, exceeding both the BoE's target and market expectations of 2.2%. Services inflation, which the central bank view as a key measure of domestically generated price pressure, edged up to 5% from 4.9%. Most analysts expect the Bank of England to leave borrowing costs steady in December, with the odds for a quarter-point reduction currently standing around 14%.
