Dames Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) I'm going for 2.6% for starters Just to add , it's 0.4% to drop out this month from last Feb D Edited March 16, 2008 by Dames Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piece of paper Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Merv said that he expected to be writing a couple of letters this year. Al promised to write to him as well so I think Merv wants to get his done first. 3% plus. p-o-p ps - Also eagerly anticipated collapse today didn't happen so this is a diversion until Lehman's are taken over.

Guest Skint Academic Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 I voted for less than 2.3, not because I think it is less than 2.3 but because I reckon the government are increasingly and desperately lieing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

geed Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Voted 2.3%, they are all a bunch of legal criminals from the FSA, the Treasury to the BoE. There will be more fiddling this year than in a saturday night ceilidh! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Bart of Darkness Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 Why no option to vote for 1.8%??? Surely CPI is on its way down with.... y'know, things.... and erm.... well, sound fundamentals and all that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Power and fuel will be out of the index soon.

Surely CPI is on its way down with.... y'know, things.... and erm.... well, sound fundamentals and all that. I really do hope it drops BOD, because this will be the final nail. 1.5% would be hilarious. I hear a few people still show some faith in the inflation stats Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Its time to buy Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) 1.9% We are in interest rate lowering cycle anyway. The man on the street does not typically take notice of CPI. Edited March 17, 2008 by notanewmember Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
