What a difference a week makes

Daily Express: So Much for Green Shoots:House Prices in Fresh Fall

Wasn't this the paper that just a week ago gave over the front page again to a "PRICES RISING" type headline. When will they realise that "a blip" is just that at not proof the market is rising? I am sure I can't be the only one totally fed up with having read over and over that the market is bottoming when any intelligent person must realise it is not going to bottom for a long long time. It is to be hoped that the average UK citizen is more intelligent than the current average UK property buyer!

It's all good when the Daily Mailexpressgraph features as many negative as positive forecasts for house prices.

If you hedge you can't be wrong.

I guess they now think there reader ratio is 50, 50. Got to keep your paying punters happy.

Is that not what the papers of today are all about?

But they haven't fallen. In £Sterling terms, Nationwide's figures show a small rise; their "seasonal adjustment" has revised the figure down. Suggest you read their report in full.

"Seasonal adjustment" doesn't get anyone a cheaper house.
