Economic Briefing - November 2007

This month's briefing gives the latest intelligence on the main economic indicators, including interest rate rises and manufacturing output.

While an interest rate cut should be on the Bank’s radar, it is sensible to wait for more evidence on the likely slowdown in economic growth. But the MPC should stand ready to cut rates if the world economy or confidence deteriorates significantly.

Also in this month's issue :

  • Consumer spending
  • Housing market
  • UK economic growth
  • International news
  • Exchange rates
  • Inflation outlook
