19 year mortgage 8itch Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 What on earth are they on about? You obviously missed the threads over the past couple of days about the Bank of England expecting us to emerge from recession in Q3? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
interestrateripoff Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Saw that too. QE may deliver a boost to GDP to bring it just into the positive territory. City Taken By Surprise As Bank Of England’s Figures Herald End Of Recession Probably a rehash of this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ken_ichikawa Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 No what they mean is that the recession will end , unfortunately not as expected as it will cease to be a recession but be a full blown depression. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hip to be bear Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) Officially a recession is 2 quarters of negative growth innit? But a recession is ended by a quarter of growth however small...... SO July, Aug and Sept will be a Quantitiatively eased and medicated uptick......(perhaps shortlived).... What price an autumn election anyone????? Edited August 21, 2009 by Hip to be bear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest KingCharles1st Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 (edited) I think this is NOT about the economy. Remember we talked about an OFFICIAL recession being three quarters/months? of negative growth- it took a long while to reach "recession" status. So the reverse is true. Brown and his henchmen are now looking to this one tiny weeny crappy little .0001+ figure, so they can OFFICIALLY say- "We brought you through a really tough time with flying colours."

Morgs Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 Nothing for anyone to worry about. When they say 'Recession to end in 40 days' they meant in the real world. On HPC it will last for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can bet we will now get Labour MPs parroting 'we are out of recession, Jeremy' in the same way they said 'well placed' etc last year.

How about 'The current recession will end and we will get an even bigger one'?No linky, just on BBC news. Its amazing isn't it ...and meanwhile BDEV shares jump 20% in one day!! Whilst Merv at the BOE says Recession Will be the Worst in History And : .... he indicated that the financial crisis had been of a scale that rivalled anything previously witnessed in history. “We’ve been through an extraordinary financial crisis,†he said. “One doesn’t need to ask questions about 'the worst since when’ since it may be hard to find any period in which it was actually worse.†Mr King added: “ What we have to do is to recognise that the banking sector is still in a very bad way. It will take several years for it to repair its balance sheets, to get back to the point when it will be weaned off very large amounts of public support and in a position again to lend normally.†Wish someone could help me understand what the hell is going on ...... I guess that is the problem with non-linear systems and chaos theory....at the end of the day it is totally unpredictable.....but who in their right or left mind would have expected property prices not only not to fall but start rising.....

Guest Skinty Posted August 21, 2009 Share Posted August 21, 2009 New Labour seem to think that as long as they can go up there and say positive stuff regardless of what's really happening then that's OK. It doesn't occur to them that 0.0001% growth because of excessive quantitative easing doesn't give the voter any more job security, doesn't reduce their crippling debt and doesn't change their voting intentions. It's like Labour are only concerned about finding excuses so that they can carry on regardless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I disagree, I think all this does occur to them... which just makes the whole thing even worse. The whole thing is simply a process of selective use of statistics to wave in front of the dumb general public. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
