The Iranian president told the Supreme Leader that the economic situation was dire, the US naval blockade was strangling Iran, and he would resign if he rejected the agreement. Furthermore, the Governor of the Central Bank of Iran, Abdulnaser Hemmati, also wrote to Khamenei, stating that the country faced a severe budget crisis and that critical food and medical supplies would run out by the end of August if the naval blockade continued.

Focus shifts to UK Inflation as EUR/GBP nears a 16-month high of 0.8720

If the EUR/GBP pair is able to surpass Thursday's high of 0.8712, it will attempt to extend its two-day winning streak. The asset is finally seeking to recapture a 16-month high at 0.8720 as a result of the European Central Bank's (ECB) historic rate hike. After a brief break around 0.8600, the cross has been climbing gradually for the past two weeks on a larger scale.

 

Christine Lagarde, president of the European Central Bank, prioritized taming the hot inflation over growth prospects by announcing a significant 75-basis-point rate increase (bps). There will likely be more rises once the interest rate was raised to 1.25 percent. The central bank won't keep raising key interest rates in the future and will instead continue to emphasize data more.

 

Inflation forecasts have also been made public by the central bank, and they estimate that it will average 8.1% in 2022, 5.5% in 2023, and 2.3% in 2024. The European Central Bank (ECB) attributed the escalating pricing pressures to supply chain restrictions, increasing energy and food prices, and other factors.

 

Inflation in the United Kingdom is double digits, and long-term growth prospects are bleak. In an effort to boost consumer confidence, Liz Truss, the country's next prime minister, has proposed a cap on energy prices to shield homeowners from the approaching winter. The demand for energy rises throughout the winter due to an increase in the use of electric heaters and appliances.

 

According to the new cabinet's energy bill cap, the average home will pay no more than £2,500 in annual energy costs.

 

The UK inflation rate will continue to be a focus in the future. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) previously hit 10.1%. Since energy prices in August have remained hopeful, it is expected that the economic statistics will pick up speed.
