全国建筑协会数据显示,英国房价在8月份环比上升0.2%,至275465英镑,这是自4月以来首次月度增长1。这一涨幅略高于分析师此前预测的0.1%1。然而,房价同比增长仅为1.6%,未能达到经济学家2%的预期1。相比4月峰值278880英镑,8月房价仍低于该水平逾3000英镑1。
英格兰银行货币政策委员会定于9月17日投票决定是否上调基准利率(当前3.75%)1。市场普遍预计本月不会加息,但预期12月前会全面上调0.25个百分点1。能源账单上升和利率不确定性正继续打击购房者信心1。此外,7月房价数据随后被修正,从环比上升0.1%调整为下跌0.1%1。
House prices in the United Kingdom increased month-on-month for the first time in four months during August, according to data released by Nationwide Building Society.1 The average price climbed 0.2% to £275,465, surpassing analyst expectations of a 0.1% rise.1 However, the annual growth rate remained modest at 1.6%, falling short of economists' forecasts of 2%.1
The modest recovery comes as the market awaits the Bank of England's monetary policy decision on September 17, when its committee will vote on whether to raise the base rate from its current level of 3.75%.1 While markets do not expect an immediate interest rate increase this month, there is widespread anticipation of a 0.25 percentage point hike before December.1 Despite the month-on-month gain, August prices remain over £3,000 below the April peak of £278,880, reflecting ongoing uncertainty in the property market.1 July's figures were also revised downward, shifting from a 0.1% monthly increase to a 0.1% decline.1
