The GBPJPY pair saw a minor increase following the release of cooler-than-expected UK CPI data, reaching a high of 208.67 before settling near 208.61.UK CPI for January 2026 cooled to 3.0% y/y (from 3.4%), driven by sharp slowdowns in transport (2.7%) and food (3.6%) inflation, while core CPI eased to 3.1% — its lowest since August 2021.
Services inflation remained sticky at 4.4%, though restaurants/hotels rose slightly to 4.1%; monthly CPI turned negative at -0.5%.
The softer print boosts BoE May rate-cut probability to ~70%, supporting a modestly stronger GBP and keeping the path toward the 2% target alive by mid-2026.
