Unemployment jumps as UK jobs market stalls: The slowing jobs market has raised questions over when the Bank of England might cut interest rates.
bbc.com/news/business-68820103
Quick Glance: Rising Real Earnings Growth Raises Concerns at Bank of England
- An unexpectedly weaker decline in the pace of wage increases has led to real earnings growth reaching its highest level in nearly two and a half years when considering inflation, according to the latest official data.
- Recent official figures indicate that average regular pay without bonuses was at 6% in the three months to February compared to the previous year.
- The broader ONS statistics revealed an increase in the UK's unemployment rate from 3.9% to 4.2%, with caution due to ongoing efforts to enhance the reliability of employment data.
- The forthcoming inflation data expected on Wednesday is likely to demonstrate further progress towards the Bank's objectives and the potential for a decrease from the current 5.25% interest rate.
