Will UK interest rates rise next week?

Krakkkers

If so by how much.

ewaste

IMHO Yes, more than likely and possibly by 0.75% rather than another 0.5% bump.

It's all just opinions at the end of the day until the announcement.

B0bbyEwing

Yes.

Enter my guess: 0.456789%.

What does the winner get?

Sg28

Certainly be an increase yes. 

0.75% I would say is the most likely.

I also read Speculation that a bigger increase is planned and they didn't want this to be announced so close to the queens death. Hence the postponement. But thats probably nonsense.

ranciduk

Definitely maybe

Base rates......almost definitely.
Interest rates......not all them, not by as much, not immediately and not necessarily.

Yes, a bigger increase is widely viewed as disrespectful to mourners

RobM99

My guess - B of E rate up 0.5% - savers' rates up 0.1%

Ask the BoE, they know, but nobody here does!

MisterMotivated

I estimate they'll round it up to 3.14%

What does the market think? What rise is already built into the price of short/medium dated gilts?
