BT Group is holding above the GBX 191 support level ahead of its quarterly earnings report on July 23. Softer U.K. inflation has improved the broader market backdrop, but the earnings release could push the stock out of its GBX 191–200 trading range.
In June, the CPI rose 0.1% month over month, while annual inflation slowed from 2.8% to 2.6%, below the 2.7% consensus forecast. Core inflation remained at 2.6%, slightly above expectations of 2.5%. The easing in headline inflation is moderately positive for BT Group.
The key catalyst will be BT Group's first-quarter fiscal 2027 results, due on July 23. Investors will focus on revenue and EBITDA growth, free cash flow, Openreach broadband line losses, and progress in the company's Full Fibre rollout.

Shares remain trapped between GBX 191 and GBX 200
The bullish scenario outlined in the previous analysis did not materialize. Instead of breaking above the psychological GBX 200 level and advancing toward GBX 210, BT Group stock retreated to support at GBX 191.
Buyers stepped in at this level, allowing the stock to stage a local rebound toward GBX 194.
To strengthen bullish momentum, the stock first needs to reclaim the 200-day simple moving average (SMA) near GBX 198. A decisive close above the upper boundary of the GBX 191–200 range would confirm a breakout, with the next upside target located near GBX 210.
The July 23 earnings report could significantly increase volatility, making risk management especially important for short-term traders. Weak financial results or disappointing guidance could trigger a sharp gap down and a break below the GBX 191 support level.
BT Group results could trigger a major price move
Although easing inflation has improved the broader backdrop for BT Group, macroeconomic factors are taking a back seat ahead of the earnings release. The company's financial results and management's outlook are likely to determine the stock's next major move.Strong results could lift the shares back toward GBX 200 and revive the bullish scenario. Conversely, a disappointing earnings report could strengthen selling pressure and increase the probability of a sustained move below GBX 191.
