FXStreet July 12 News - Societe Generale said that if the data released on July 17 shows that UK inflation in June remained stable, considering the lower-than-expected US inflation report released last night, the British pound against the US dollar may further rise. Forex strategist Kit Juckes said in a report that the market generally predicts that the UK's core inflation rate will remain at 3.5%, which will continue to give the Bank of England a headache. He said that the stickiness of inflation in the UK is troubling and is a side effect of Brexit.
