UK inflation came better than expected. It slowed down to 10.1% from 10.5% although economists had expected it to drop to 10.3%. Nevertheless, inflation is still at a high rate. However, in the wake of such a noticeable drop in the figures, the Bank of England may soon adjust its monetary policy stance. Meanwhile, the latest inflation results triggered a sell-off in GBP/USD.
