But if you look, every single date has an 8 in it, conspiracy or accident???

It represents the masonic handshake.

I could tell you more but it's safer for you that you don't know.

That's just silly. You seem brighter than to go for these dumb conspiracy theories.

MPC meet......Halifax HPI released
14/8/08............14/8/08
10/7/08............10/7/08
12/6/08.............5/6/08
8/5/08...............2/5/08
10/4/08.............8/4/08
13/3/08.............6/3/08
14/2/08.............5/2/08
10/1/08.............8/1/08

I can't be bothered to search any further back.

And September. So that's the last 3 months.

Will we even get Halifax figures now that they've been bought by Lloyds?

Good question. No doubt if they stop producing the figures it's a conspiracy to someone.

I had been wondering about that. I guess they'll keep the halifax brand and the index as it has been running for a good few years.

The purchase hasn't gone through yet has it? I think Lloyds can still back out if they get cold feet.

The way that I believe that it works is that LLOY have made a binding offer and the Board have recommended to their shareholders that they accept.

The next thing that happens is that the shareholders vote (you get one vote per share rather than per person so effectively the big pension funds vote) whether or not to accept. It's pretty unusual not to accept although far from unheard of.

I predict that they will completely overhaul their indexing system and somehow come up with a rise

Presumably that's why there's no NRK HPI.
