No I did both of those things.

But I changed when A) NR got nationlised, Quantative easing was on the cards C) Interest rates broke reocrds.

None of which could have been predicted.

However, your sig is made to look like something else. Like I said, if thats what you feel you need to do, you feel free, but don't just make rubbish up. My quote quoted all your words without cutting bits out. Your sig cuts parts of my posts out.

Still, keeps chucky and ISTL happy, I mean, who cares about whats actually said!

I'm sure you made the first prediction in March this year, AFTER QE and NR nationilsation and when BoE base rate hit 0.5%

I might have talked about it. Not predicted it.

If I did predict that in March, then I was either A) drunk or off my rocker.

Your very good usually at finding old quotes to catch people out, so I expect no less...

I won't admit it until at least a years worth of full recovery.

Would be rather premature to admit I was wrong now.

You are entitled to change your mind, as the great man said

'When the facts change, I change my mind. What do you do, sir? '

BTW where are you at the moment, from what you have said above, all your guesstimates appear to be still live.

His 'prediction' was not based on the market at the time it was based on his VI, talking down the market. The same as all the other mad bears on this site sprouting bullsh1t about 70% drops. The funniest thing is that they thought that wasting their time talking the market down on here would make any kind of difference.

Clowns!

Ooooh. So as a homeowner, what exactly is my VI?

You seem to know me so well, so please tell.

No one can even point out this "predicition" to me, just tell me thats what I predicted. Not even ISTL can point it out, although he usually can, and he's "sure".

Although I agree 70% was always an extreme prediction, but I don't agree its ridiculous to say that prices could fall by up to 50% in the medium term.
Unemployment is increasing faster than it ever has on record, and GDP output is set to be lower than any other recession post WWII this year.

The fact is nobody, not even the chancellor himself knows where we will be this time next year. Predicting that the recession is practically over and house prices are going up from here is equally as stupid as predicting house prices are going to fall by 70% over the next 10 years.

Wow what short memories the bulls have. Lets rewind to the flat sales, 300k plus for two beds in a city near you, and talk of them falling would be met with derision. I think in a couple of short years we have hit 70% for some of those now?

I am quite happy to stick my neck out, and if wrong then so be it. 50% feels right to me. Why, you ask, as you either hang on every word, or laugh at me? Because we have been through several years of absolute start raving insanity. Where it seemed perfectly reasonable to double your money in a few short years. It was a nonsense that has much further to unravel.

Sorry about that bulls. If I'm wrong you can buy me a pint - I'll need it, and you will be able to afford it.

So, had QE, NR nationalisation and BoE rates at record lows not happened then

It's ok, I accept your explanation.
It surely was a bit early to be drunk on a Thursday but as always, I agree you are off your rocker

P.s. How much was the wager?
