UK became the first G7 economy to hike interest rates

GBPUSD trading plan:

Britain became the first G7 economy to hike interest rates since the onset of the pandemic. Bank of England policymakers raised the benchmark Bank Rate to 0.25% from 0.1%, confounding economists' expectations that it would stay on hold. The BoE said inflation was set to hit 6% in April, three times the BoE's target level. "The Committee continues to judge that there are two-sided risks around the inflation outlook in the medium term, but that some modest tightening of monetary policy over the forecast period is likely to be necessary to meet the 2% inflation target sustainably," the UK central bank said. This is a positive signal for the British currency!

Investment idea: buy 1.3306 and take profit 1.3372.
