For 2027, the figure faced an even more drastic cut to 0.9 per cent from 1.5 per cent.</p><p>Louise Hellem, chief economist at the CBI, said: “What’s happening around the world is compounding the UK’s low-growth story.</p><p>“We saw weak momentum throughout 2025, but if it weren’t for the latest global shocks, we could be having a much more positive conversation about the economy today. Last year it was tariffs and this year it’s the conflict in the Middle East.”</p><p>The US-Iran war reached its 100th day on Sunday, with little signs of a formal peace agreement, despite Donald Trump insisting one was “very close”.</p><p>It has kept the price of oil elevated, handing a blow to global economies which are left to deal with the inflationary consequences.</p><p>Trump said on Tuesday that the US is “in the final throes of what will be a very, very good deal that will not allow in any way, shape, or form nuclear weapons, etcetera”.</p><p>“And the Strait [of Hormuz] will open up right away. It will open up immediately upon signing, which could be in two or three days,” he added</p><p>The halting of traffic through the strait – which is responsible for around a fifth of the world’s oil supply – has been a key driver in fanning the flames of inflation and crippling economies across the globe.</p><p>We’ll be bringing you the latest reaction to this and more.</p><h3 id="h-here-s-a-few-of-our-top-stories-this-morning">Here’s a few of our top stories this morning</h3><ul> <li>Debt-saddled grads ‘risk earning less than minimum wage’ five years after leaving uni</li>    <li>Nine best spots to watch the Fifa World Cup in London</li>    <li>England World Cup fans invited to ‘soccer Coachella’ with free fan fest and cheap beer</li>    <li>FCA seeks injunction against Neil Woodford over ‘unauthorised’ investment advice</li>    <li>London Stock Exchange boss accuses FCA of ‘playing fast and loose’ as she warns government may have to ‘step in’</li> </ul> </div>

<p>CBI 将英国 2026 年的 GDP 预测下调至 1.1%，2027 年下调至 0.9%，原因是美国与伊朗冲突等全球性冲击以及高企的油价。同时，唐纳德·特朗普声称霍尔木兹海峡将在几天内开放，可能会缓解通胀压力。富时 100 指数在市场消化关于英国经济增长和地缘政治发展的这些混合信号时保持平稳</p>
