• Modest pullback in EUR/GBP, having ran out of steam at 0.8450
• A touch more hawkish BoE decision allowed the move to extend
• However, UK budget risks matter more, which leans GBP negative
• Thus, EUR/GBP dips should find support into 0.8335-50 (100/55-day MAs)
• Reeves to reveal biggest spending cuts since austerity in budget
• This highlights the fiscal divergence between UK and Germany
• German upper house to vote Friday on fiscal reform. Expected to pass
• In turn, case for EUR/GBP upside remains
