Surging global energy prices from the escalating Middle East conflict, particularly the Iran war, have propelled Polymarket's trader consensus to a 65.5% implied probability of a Bank of England rate hike in 2026, reversing prior cut expectations. The Monetary Policy Committee unanimously held Bank Rate at 3.75% on March 19 amid February CPI inflation steady at 3%—well above the 2% target—with services inflation easing only modestly to 4.3%. Official minutes highlighted upside inflation risks from higher fuel costs, fostering hawkish repricing in overnight index swaps. Key catalysts include April 30 MPC decision, March CPI data, and sustained energy price trajectory, which could solidify tightening if pressures persist.
