UK economy contracts sharply in April: Will the BoE respond?
Cikk tartalma röviden

Britain's economic recovery faced a setback in April with a 0.3% GDP contraction, the steepest since October 2023. The services sector, particularly legal activities, was the main contributor to this decline. Labour market data showed a drop in payrolled employees and a rise in unemployment. Despite economic challenges, the Bank of England is expected to keep interest rates unchanged, although rate cuts are anticipated later this year. The pound weakened against the euro, while equity markets remained stable.
