This growth above expectations led traders to invest in the sterling and reduced the likelihood of interest rate cuts by the Bank of England (BoE). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The BoE has indicated that it is monitoring for cooling price pressures before considering reducing borrowing costs.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The UK wage growth data indicated a slowdown but remained robust for the three months to May. Annual wage growth decreased to 5.7% from 6% in the previous three-month period ending in April.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"> Similarly, average weekly earnings reported a 5.7% annual growth for the same period.
