• EUR/GBP rose to 0.8580, overcoming a key resistance level.
• Softer UK inflation data suppressed Pound Sterling during Wednesday's session.
• Markets are strongly considering a cut in September by the BoE.

Wednesday saw the EUR/GBP pair rise towards 0.8580, with softer-than-expected inflation data from the UK weighing on Pound Sterling. This contrasts Tuesday's movements, when the strength of the Pound was elevated by more positive UK employment data as lower inflation figures might prompt a more dovish Bank of England (BoE).

The UK's Office for National Statistics reported that inflation in the UK, measured by the Consumer Price Index (CPI), rose to a yearly 2.2% in July from 2% in June, below the market expectation of 2.3%. Similarly, the core CPI growth decreased to 3.3% down from 3.5% recorded in June. The initial market reaction to these figures resulted in diminished interest in Pound Sterling.
