GBP: Spot Slips on Growing Political Risk, Underperformance in UK Bonds
Nov-12 09:02
GBP weakness does coincide with Streeting's comments being more widely circulated in UK media e.g. Here: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2025/11/12/politics-latest-news-keir-starmer-leadership-challenge-pmqs/ but nothing particularly new after his appearance on the BBC this morning.
- No real standout volumes on the move: GBP futures activity has picked up, but not notably - suggesting price action here may not be tied to sizeable flow. The more gradual nature of the move in spot also supports this.
- Move in GBP may instead be fix related into 9am - or tied to the underperformance in Gilt markets relative to broader European bonds.
- GBPUSD has stabilised just above the new daily low of 1.3115.
GILTS: Leading The Wider Sell Off
Nov-12 08:56
Gilts lead the sell off in core global FI markets this morning.
- A reminder that this comes after Tuesday’s outperformance in the wake of weak UK labour market data and key resistance holding in futures.
- Rumours surrounding a potential leadership challenge within the ruling Labour Party, presence of syndicated gilt supply (albeit I/L) and the bid in equities (gilts having a higher beta than Bunds) seem to be the driving factors.
