It's him again!

The Times: Analysts predict Bank rate will be cut to 4.5%

ECONOMISTS still expect further interest-rate cuts before the year-end in spite of sharply rising inflation and a warning from the International Monetary Fund this weekend that there is no scope to relax monetary policy in the short term.

If the "Eddie the Eagle" of financial editors (AKA Smith) is saying there will be a cut then a rise is an absolute certainty.

Whatever, if it's cut we're screwed if it's left alone we're screwed. I prefer Eddie, the Eagle he has a better chance of landing.

I love the comments too -

I'm curious - Idea-global.com have never been mentioned by any other economics columnist ever as far as I know. The IMF is far more reputable and ... as far as I can tell ... they are saying the exact opposite to you Mr Smith. Getting it wrong is starting to become a habit for you I fear ...

Ouch. That'll smart.

When David Smith refers to "economists" he uses the term very loosely, I'd bundle him in with the economic school which includes other alumni such as Bruno and the chief strategist of the State Bank of Zimbabwe
