GBPJPY lost its shine after dismal UK jobs data. It hits an intraday low of 207.35 and is currently trading around 207.70.
Late 2025/early 2026 UK labour market statistics reveal a gradual cooling: In January 2026, claimant count increased 13.4K (below expectations), while annual claims continued to decline despite adjustments.
Wage growth lost momentum, slowing to 4.2% y/y for both regular and total pay in the three months to December 2025, with real pay growth (CPIH-adjusted) at just 0.5%.
At the margins, the market is loosening as private sector pay rose only 3.4%; unemployment held steady at 5.2% in Q4 2025; this helps to reduce wage pressures without indicating abrupt weakness.
