UK Jobs Data Could Support Sterling Ahead of Next BOE Decision
0810 GMT - The latest U.K. jobs data support expectations the Bank of England will raise interest rates further and this should benefit sterling, ING says. Market expectations for four rate rises by year-end are "overdone" but Tuesday's employment data and Wednesday's inflation report will do little to challenge the "hawkish bets," ING analysts say. "This means that the pound's good momentum, which has remained immune to the UK's political noise, should remain broadly intact into the February 3 BOE meeting." EUR/GBP could fall below 0.8300, they say. EUR/GBP falls 0.1% to 0.8353 but GBP/USD drops 0.1% to 1.3644. The data showed the unemployment rate fell 0.4 percentage points to 4.1% in the three months to the end of November. (renae.dyer@wsj.com)

Market Talk:
Brent May Average $105 in 2023, Goldman Sachs Says
0730 GMT - Brent crude prices may average $105/bbl in 2023, as higher prices are needed to bring the oil markets into balance, Goldman Sachs says. GS, which has forecast Brent at $96/bbl this year, says that at the current levels of about $85/bbl, the market will remain critically undersupplied due to low OECD inventories and declining OPEC+ spare production capacity. It thinks the market should balance at $105/bbl Brent in 2023, as higher prices reduce demand and incentivize more supply. "We are positioned for such a rebalancing process through our long Brent Dec-22 vs. Dec-23 and long Dec-23 Brent trade recommendations," GS says. (yongchang.chin@wsj.com)
