bubbleturbo Posted February 14, 2006 Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 (edited) Chill out. US rates, Euro rates and most other rates are on thier way up. Factory gate inflation is going up, up, up, which will feed through into CPI. Where I am, the August rate cut gave the market a little kick, but this has dried up mid December and the market has now stalled again. There are some dreamers, but also some aggressive sellers out there. I could defo buy cheaper now that this time last year. The economy is coming off the rails and crash Gordon is getting deperate. If they cut rates again, it could be a depserate measure mistake which will cause lots of other knock on issues, which over the medium term will ensure a crash.

OzzMosiz Posted February 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2006 Who ever said life was meant to be easy hey? Hey my life has never been easy. Life is never easy for most of us. I don't expect it to be a breeze. Would be boring if it was I guess. I just want opportunities to get on with life. You can't argue that the government are fiddling things for short term gain Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And since they would appear to be indebted up to the eyeballs at the worst possible time... Relax. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
