(GBP) The Halifax UK house price index falls 1.9% m/m in Mar, contradicting the 0.9% m/m increase reported by the Nationwide. The Halifax 3mth y/y measure nevertheless firms up slightly, to -17.5%, from -17.7% y/y in the 3mths to Feb.

The Halifax measure contrasts with the market consensus of -1% m/m (-17.3% y/y), so those bulls who bought GBP on the back of the Nationwide report released only yesterday, may be wondering if they got a little too excited about the state of the UK housing market. All eyes now on the Mar CIPS services sector survey at 09:30.
