Nationwide put their mortgage rates down 0.15% two days ago: http://www.nationwide.co.uk/mediacentre/Pr...this.asp?ID=762 but do not worry because they put them up 0.15% less than a month ago: http://www.nationwide.co.uk/mediacentre/Pr...this.asp?ID=744 Edited December 8, 2005 by King Of Fools Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apom Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 Nationwide put their mortgage rates down 0.15% two days ago: http://www.nationwide.co.uk/mediacentre/Pr...this.asp?ID=762 but do not worry because they put them up 0.15% less than a month ago: http://www.nationwide.co.uk/mediacentre/Pr...this.asp?ID=744 Which means that they were expecting a rise this month.. Un-officially of course. Now the prat on the CH4 news was saying they will stay flat for half a year before they need to drop.. I think we should try and drop them.. Why can't we be the only major currency to not be raising rates...? Be interesting to see what the minutes say. I was being sarcastic above.. Dermot this morning flicks to the Currency performance. Quickly says "This is what the currencies are doing" and the page flicks of.. No indicators diplayed to show trends or directions.. Where did they go BBC...? Reporting the news or shaping it...

Levy process Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 So much for TTRTR's "interest rate cutting environment". Ah well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apom Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 and what happens to the pound at the suggestion of a rate cut....? http://today.reuters.co.uk/Investing/Finan...-33_L06419574:1 Horrible long URL, but have a look... So when we are told the MPC must fight inflation with lower IR's This is what happens when the world thinks we may lower IR's and a falling pound = instant inflation on the global scale.
