WHY THIS INDICATOR MATTERS
This release contributes to the broader macro picture used by cross-asset investors for positioning and risk management. The release is more useful as part of a longer-run signal than as a single-print catalyst. Released monthly.
WHAT CHANGED THIS MONTH
Latest reading (Jul 2026): actual 0.3 %, consensus 0.7 %. Prior reading (Jun 2026): 0.1 %. Before that (May 2026): 0.5 %.
WHAT'S NEXT

This indicator correlates most strongly with GBP/USD (Bearish GBP, r=-0.64) — a useful reference for forex-focused traders.
