But employment intentions rebounded, suggesting slack will no longer widen, and inflation looks stubborn.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The MPC could easily focus on realised job growth instead and the PMI, which is more dovish, and cut in August anyway.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;But we continue to think that only one more rate cut this year is the right call. If it comes in August, then we think the MPC will be on hold for the rest of the year.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, the City&#8217;s money markets are pricing a better chance of an August rate cut this morning, with\u00a0just over an 80% chance seen now, up from around 75% earlier in the week.<\/p>\n<p>10.52am: Keller hit by Deutsche downgrade<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk\/LON:KLR\/Keller-Group-PLC\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Keller Group PLC (LSE:KLR)<\/a>\u00a0shares are down 4.2% after a downgrade from Deutsche Bank.<\/p>\n<p>The investment case &#8220;has played out, for now&#8221;, says analyst Jonathan Coubrough, with management actions over the past five years contributing to an impressive transformation in financial metrics, resulting in the share price doubling since late 2023.<\/p>\n<p>However, he says, group profits fell double digits in the second half of 2024, and guidance for a return to a normal H2-weighting this year implies a further fall in the first half of this year, before requiring high growth in the second half to meet consensus forecasts.<\/p>\n<p>The FTSE 250 is 154 points over, or 0.7%, with Keller&#8217;s decline as well as those from Baltic Classifieds and Watched of Switzerland holding it back from even bigger gains.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The FTSE 100 is up almost 0.4%, with the London indices the only European benchmarks in green.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In Frankfurt and Paris, the DAX and CAC are down 0.1% and 0.2% respectively.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>10.23am: Rate cut &#8216;more likely&#8217; after PMIs<\/p>\n<p>The rise in the UK services and composite PMI &#8220;suggests that the economy is continuing to recover from the tax and tariff shocks in April&#8221;, says Thomas Pugh, chief economist at\u00a0RSM UK.<\/p>\n<p>Despite this, Pugh said UK economic growth in Q2 &#8220;will still fall sharply&#8221; from Q1\u2019s bumper 0.7% though, to around 0.2% he reckons.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;What\u2019s more, the output prices balance hit its lowest level since February 2021, which will give some ammunition to the doves at the Bank of England, and makes a rate cut in August even more likely,&#8221; he added, with good news also on inflation.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While there were encouraging signs, such as new orders rising to suggest confidence is starting to return across the supply chain, the future output index slipped back and\u00a0employment remains a weak spot.<\/p>\n<p>It suggested that firms were still shedding jobs heading into the summer, though Pugh says he suspects &#8220;the worst of the labour market pain is already behind us, but demand for labour is unlikely to pick up rapidly&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>9.44am: Services output improves despite continued contraints from exports<\/p>\n<p>June&#8217;s PMI data highlights a &#8220;modest rebound in UK service sector growth, fuelled by a turnaround in domestic business and consumer spending after a soft patch during the spring,&#8221; says Tim Moore, economics director at S&amp;P Global Market Intelligence.<\/p>\n<p>Activity was slightly stronger than the earlier &#8216;flash&#8217; estimate for June and the fastest in 10 monthsa.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;While total new work picked up in June, shrinking export sales were a constraint on service sector growth,&#8221; he says, noting that survey respondents cited headwinds from US tariffs and geopolitical tensions, resulting in subdued demand conditions across global markets.<\/p>\n<p>Employment numbers in the services sector decreased for the ninth month running and at a faster pace than in May, with companies explaining that job shedding was a mix of redundancies and non-replacement of voluntary leavers, while Moore pointed to concerns about elevated payroll costs.<\/p>\n<p>On inflation, he says the survey pointed to a &#8220;considerable slowdown&#8221; in overall cost inflation across services businesses.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A combination of easing price pressures and lower employment leaves the door open for the Bank of England to resume its run of interest rate cuts at the next policy meeting in August.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>9.37am: UK services rebound<\/p>\n<p>The UK&#8217;s key services sector expanded at the fastest rate of growth since last August, with\u00a0new orders rising for the first time in three months.<\/p>\n<p>There was also good news on inflation for the Bank of England, with the services purchasing managers&#8217; index (PMI) survey finding the slowest pace of prices-charged inflation since February 2021.<\/p>\n<p>The\u00a0S&amp;P Global UK services PMI jumped to 52.8 for June, up from 50.9 in May and the highest for 10 months.<\/p>\n<p>The UK composite PMI for June therefore rose to 52.0 from 50.3, beating the expected\u00a050.7 by a long way.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Bank of England has also published its Decision Maker Panel survey.<\/p>\n<p>UK firms&#8217; annual wage growth was 4.6% in the three months to June, the report said, 0.1 percentage points lower than in the three months to May.<\/p>\n<p>UK lenders expect demand for mortgages to fall in the next three months, the weakest reading since 2023.<\/p>\n<p>9.09am: WOSG was &#8216;a little vague&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>The results from\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk\/LON:WOSG\/Watches-of-Switzerland-Group-PLC\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watches of Switzerland Group PLC (LSE:WOSG)<\/a>\u00a0has largely been pre-announced, says analyst Jonathan Pritchard at Peel Hunt.<\/p>\n<p>He says EBIT of \u00a3150 million was in line with expectations but flags that there was no update on current trading, and the outlook for FY26 &#8220;is a little vague&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Guidance\u00a0for sales growth of 6-10% is &#8220;largely in line with where the market had gathered&#8221;, but the range of margin expectations of flat to down -100bps compares with a consensus forecast of a 30bps decline before the announcement.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Currency has gone against WOSG as well, so it is likely that forecasts will come down this morning,&#8221; says Pritchard, &#8220;we would expect 3-5% as a first stab, but intend to confirm after the call at 9am&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>8.53am: Trump, bond markets, UK repair mode\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Donald Trump has renewed his attacks on Federal Reserve chief Jerome Powell, calling for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk\/companies\/news\/1074054\/trump-urges-fed-chair-powell-to-resign-amid-criticism-over-interest-rates-1074054.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">his immediate resignation<\/a> in a social media post.<\/p>\n<p>The US president posted a link to a news report suggesting Powell should be investigated over renovation costs at the central bank\u2019s Washington headquarters, adding that \u201c\u2018Too Late\u2019 should resign immediately.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>US Treasury yields, which indicate government borrowing costs, have shown a mixed reaction, with shorter-dated government bonds slightly higher, while 10-year and longer bonds continuing to ease.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, UK gilt yields are largely back to where they were before bond markets got in a tizzy over Rachel Reeves&#8217; teary appearance, while the pound\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The FTSE 100 is up, helped by PM Keir Starmer backing Reeves to remain chancellor &#8220;into the next election&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p>Gilt yields, which indicate UK government borrowing costs, have dipped back from the sharp gains yesterday, while the pound has also regained some strength, up 0.2% against the dollar and euro.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;A Chancellor in tears, a backbench revolt, and signs investors are becoming more risk averse to the UK is hardly the way the Prime Minister wanted to mark his first year in office,&#8221; says\u00a0market analyst Susannah Streeter at\u00a0Hargreaves Lansdown.<\/p>\n<p>The government is &#8220;in repair mode&#8221;, she says. &#8220;This is helping restore some calm on bond and currency markets, given that investors need stability and certainty to have the confidence to invest in UK assets.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Sterling is still lower against the dollar compared to 24 hours ago, having reached multi-year highs earlier this week. But it is still up 1.5% on a fortnight ago, and around 12% since the start of the year.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Some worries remain about the government being backed into a corner and losing its grip on the public finances. Investors may still be on alert to fresh opposition to government plans to trim spending, to try and abide by its fiscal rules and keep bond markets onside.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>8.30am: Frasers secures\u00a0hefty increase in borrowing capacity<\/p>\n<p>Shares in Mike Ashley&#8217;s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.proactiveinvestors.co.uk\/LON:FRAS\/Frasers-Group-PLC\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Frasers Group PLC (LSE:FRAS)<\/a>\u00a0are up 0.5% after it arranged a mammoth \u00a33 billion borrowing facility from its banks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The combination of term loan and revolving credit facility replaces existing financing facilities of\u00a0\u00a31.65 billion and\u00a0is valid for three years extension\u00a0options up to five years and for a further \u00a3500 million.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The group believes the substantial increase in the total facility demonstrates significant support from the banking industry for the success and strength of the group and its elevation strategy,&#8221;
