Consumer Price Index (CPI) figures released today will show the change in the price of goods and services purchased by consumers and are expected to show a drop from 3.5% to 3.1%. Furthermore, the Bank of England’s inflation letter that follows will provide further insight into the potential for more quantitative easing in the near term. Other data to be released includes the Public Sector Net Borrowing figures which show the difference in value between spending and income for public corporations, the central government, and local governments during the previous month.
