BOE: MNI BOE Review / UK Issuance Deep Dive - March 2024 In case you missed it, we published our BOE Review and UK Issuance Deep Dive on Saturday morning: * Together with the change in the vote shift and looking more closely at the Minutes and Governor Bailey's accompanying statement, we think that there was a significant dovish shift. * The MNI Markets team continues to see around a 15% probability of a first cut in May, increase our view of the first cut in June to 35% (up from 30%), maintain our 40% probability view of an August first cut and now see a 10% probability (down from 15%) of the first cut being delayed further. * We also analyze how analyst expectations have evolved. There has been a slight shift in expectations post-meeting here with 3/22 analysts still expecting a first cut in May, 10/22 June, 9/22 August with none of the analyst reviews we have read looking for a first cut in September. * In addition, we look at the DMO's issuance alongside the BOE's APF sales calendars for the April to June period.
