Until they get money velocity up (yeah right, like that happens with rising unemployment), falling prices are increasingly likely. Unless they devalue to such an extent that import prices rocket. I alway laugh at this. They see stable low inflation as a good thing. How they achieve that doesnt seem to matter. The fact we are all spending more on a litre of imported petrol, or more on imported food and clothing does not a recovery make. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Glad we didn't listen to the morons calling for rate rises all this year.:eek:
The BoE nailed it with that call, strong deflationary pressures, QE was the right thing to do, and no way we'll be seeing rate rises any time soon.
