Fundamental analysis:
The pound remained volatile against the yen at 168.094. The UK's core CPI in September was 0.6% on a monthly basis, expected to be 0.5%, with a previous value of 0.8%. The annual rate of CPI in Britain recorded 10.1% in September. Since the annual rate of inflation in Britain reached double digits again, the monthly rate of CPI rose by 0.5%. This will only aggravate the pain of British Prime Minister Truss' government, because before the arrival of severe winter, higher price pressure still exists, and the cost of living crisis will also worsen in the coming months.
