Analysts expect the pound to fall after Thursday's expected Bank of England hike to 4.00%, a sell-the-fact move. Markets price about 100 basis points of further tightening over twelve months, while the BoE is seen as unlikely to validate those hikes.
The pound trades near 1.3488 against the dollar.
If the BoE guidance is less hawkish than priced, sterling could weaken, which would raise the sterling cost of dollar-priced feed imports for UK buyers.
