    Even I'm shocked at that.


    Super news though. Looks like those HPC ghouls are right after all. I think every owes them an apology :)

    :beer: cheers :beer:
    I couldn't believe what I was looking at: 3.6%?!?

    'must be a typo' I thought. 'or a wind-up'.

    so I called by bloomberg and sure enough..

    then over to HPC, where celebrations are getting out of hand.

    and premature. one month, one index.

    what does generali keep saying about 'noise'?

    UK house prices fell 3.6% in September, Halifax says

    House prices fell by 3.6% in September from the previous month, according to the latest figures from the Halifax.

    However the bank, now part of the Lloyds Banking Group, said it was too early to conclude that this was the start of a sustained fall in prices.

    The three-month on three-month comparison, seen as a smoother measure of prices showed a 0.9% drop in September.

    The average UK home is now valued at £162,096, the survey found.

    It's a total meltdown amongst the Bulls.
    Hamish chokes on his porridge, chucky kicks the cat and Ting Tong leaves Sibley for someone with better prospects.
    I think this is slightly out of order, I've always found Chucky to be realistic with his opinions unlike the other so called bulls.

    On another note, is this now a trend?
