UK construction a 5 month low

The construction PMI at 61.4 missed estimates of 63.5. The Chartered Institute for Procurement and Supply (CIPS) remarked that this is the weakest expansion since May. This was led by a sharp slowdown in residential building growth.

This miss caused GBP/JPY to fall slightly, hampering its bull run since Friday.
