FTSE 100 lifts to a new all time high after BOE remains on hold

The reaction to the latest policy decision from the BOE has dented the pound and push the FTSE 100 to a new record high above 8,375. The index was gagging for this anyway by the looks of it and that voting split sent a slightly dovish tone to the markets and has helped the FTSE 100 to reach a new all time high just now. The upgrading in the Banks growth forecast has also helped the index too. The markets will now move on, to see what the BOE governor and his colleagues have to say in the upcoming press conference, dissecting this decsion.
