1454 GMT - Markets could have a muted reaction to the Bank of England's interest-rate decision on Thursday, when rates are expected to be left on hold at 4.50%, Danske Bank analysts say in a note. The BOE is likely to maintain its guidance of gradual and cautious interest-rate cuts, they say. U.K. money markets price in a total of 54 basis points of BOE rate cuts in 2025, LSEG data show, while Danske Bank analysts expect a total of 75bps of rate reductions this year.
