The GBP/USD pair continues to decline for the third consecutive month, trading near 1.3010 under pressure from expectations of a significant tax increase in the autumn budget to be presented later this month. Treasury chief Rachel Reeves stated that the measures outlined in the document aim to curb inflation and create conditions for monetary easing to support economic growth and improve living standards. However, experts fear that the expenses required to implement these plans will be covered not through external borrowing but by raising the tax burden by £26–30 billion. This may include adjustments to income tax and VAT, potentially hurting businesses by discouraging investment and prompting workforce reductions.

WTI Crude Oil prices are trading in the range of 62.37–59.95, maintaining a steady downtrend and losing 4.0–9.0% in value since the beginning of the year. The main bearish driver remains the OPEC+ decision to increase oil production by 137,000 barrels per day in December, which could push the supply surplus to 1.0–2.0 million barrels per day, according to the International Energy Agency (IEA). Meanwhile, demand remains weak amid slowing growth in China and the EU, and rising U.S. output reaching 13.8 million barrels per day to offset sanctions on Russian exports. The World Bank Group forecasts a 7.0% decline in commodity prices in 2026.

Gold prices have been correcting for the third consecutive week, trading near 4000.00 under pressure from monetary and trade factors. Last Wednesday, the U.S. Federal Reserve cut the benchmark rate by 25 basis points to a range of 3.75–4.00% and announced the end of its quantitative tightening program effective December 1. However, Fed Chair Jerome Powell later suggested that the central bank may keep policy unchanged in December, disappointing investors who had expected another rate cut before year-end. Powell noted that officials increasingly see the need for a pause to evaluate the impact of previous decisions.
