Inflation lurking just off shore.. The big downturn is yet to come

Gamespot UK: Nintendo UK raises Wii wholesale price

Quantative easing, huge national debts, and the housing bubble have all contributeded to the destruction of the pound, this will lead to the a sharp rise in everything imported to the uk and therefore Inflation. If house prices are dropping with Mortgages at 1%, just think what will happen when we have interest rates of 12, 13,14,15%

Average 6/7% interest rates with rock bottom house prices is a winning combination. How did the bulls get conned with the oppersite?

The sooner it happens the better.

Also if imports were to become ever more expensive then we would tend towards producing and exporting more, scant comfort from the heyday of the past decade perhaps

Economic confidence has nothing to do with currency. It is the confidence in the currency that causes inflation.

Nintendo have raised prices not because Sterling is too low but because the Yen is too high.

Must say I am noticing the opposite of deflation -my rent is up, gas and electricity still up a lot and food is way more expensive than last year.

Why allow deflation when you can lie about low inflation and idiots are buying the bull? : (

HYPER-INFLATION the route to future DEPRESSION.
