This week in the UK also brings the preliminary release of Q2 GDP figures, due on Wednesday. The latest economic indicators have been quite mixed – for example, retail sales rebounded after a notable drop at the start of the year, but other areas of consumer spending have been discouraging. Indeed, new car sales have fallen sharply, and momentum in the housing market has moderated.
