UK Inflation Falls to 3.6% as Food Prices Jump and Markets Bet on December Rate Cut

UK inflation has finally ticked lower, dropping to 3.6% in October 2025, but any sense of relief for households is being tempered by a renewed surge in food prices and lingering pressure on living costs. The fall in the headline rate has sharpened expectations that the Bank of England could cut interest rates again in December — just as Chancellor Rachel Reeves prepares a politically pivotal budget on 26 November.

With traders pricing in a strong chance of a December Fed cut, dips in the dollar have tended to lift XAG/USD; conversely, any dollar rebound caps intraday rallies. Today’s Reuters market wrap captured that push‑pull, noting silver up about 1% near $51.76 as gold steadied into the House vote. Reuters
