Dow Jones04-24 22:35
1435 GMT - The Bank of England's meeting next week will be watched for policymakers' views on inflation and growth amid the Middle East war, Nomura research analysts say in a note. The monetary policy committee is expected to "update markets on its reaction function to the U.S.-Iran war," the analysts say. MPC members should outline their views on risks to the economy and inflation from high energy prices, they say. Investors price in an 85% chance of the BOE keeping interest rates on hold at 3.75% during the meeting and a small 15% chance of a 25 basis-point increase to 4.0%, LSEG data show.
