Some interesting data. And just to confuse the issue, they appear to have revised the extent of the previous 3 months falls.If I don't reply to your post,
you're probably on my ignore list.0 -
take the results from Jan starting at 100 and calculate the % increase since then.
Which I did.
I made the answer 1.289%, so suggested that Hamish was "rounding up" the figure to 2%.
You replied......
"it looks like it's you "rounding up" not me...

you're actually right - it was Hamish that rounded it up to 2%.Which I did.
that will teach me to listen to Hamish
it should be +1.28% instead of +1.3% if you just added the perecentages together - very minor difference.
i was looking at this without checking Hamish's 2% number100 minus 1% = 99.00
99 plus 1% = 99.99
so it would need a 1.01% increase to get back to the original level of 100...0 -

Nice one chucky.
I thought you might accuse me of causing trouble, but my intention was only to point out a slight error or exaggeration by Hamish. When I looked at the data given, 2% didn`t look right.
It`s academic now, as Rinoa has pointed out that the figures have been revised.30 Year Challenge : To be 30 years older. Equity : Don't know, don't care much. Savings : That's asking for ridicule.0 -
why would i think that?I thought you might accuse me of causing trouble, but
i agree, i find that it's always good to see the true facts.but my intention was only to point out a slight error or exaggeration by Hamish.
but... it may be a coincidence but the revisions actually work out to 2%0 -

Maybe Hamish actually looked at today's Acadametrics link rather than assuming Brit's figures were right.

This seems to me looking at 2010 as many predicted, a stagnant year.
The YOY will lower and real time stagnation os what would benefit most.:wall:
What we've got here is....... failure to communicate.
Some men you just can't reach.

Maybe he did, but he quoted the old figures, so I simply pointed out the error on what he posted.

So everyone is a winner then.
Hamish as he actually gets the larger HPI figure and yourself as he quoted some rubbish.
Break out the champagne..... I'm buying.
