    Could be dangerous. They predicted +0.6 for Halifax, which was only 4% out.
  • Will be interesting to know if Nationwide's statistics include the £1 valuation [See other post Homeowner outraged after the property he paid £84,000 for is valued - at just £1]

    Seeing as you couldn't get a mortgage for £1 I doubt it is included.
  • Then it's probably +2% or -3%, their predictions don't seem very on the ball!
    ...much enquiry having been made concerning a gentleman, who had quitted a company where Johnson was, and no information being obtained; at last Johnson observed, that 'he did not care to speak ill of any man behind his back, but he believed the gentleman was an attorney'.
  • It's more likely to be up by 72.5% than to be anywhere near the Forex prediction, based on their track record.
    Set your goals high, and don't stop till you get there.

    indeed they don't. I said on another thread that their totally missed call on the last hali figure left them with zilch credibility, IMO.

    a missed call this time and they'll be even further around the u-bend.

    Is it their prediction? I thought they just put up the market forecasts for releases.
    They are the same forecasts Inspector Monkfish puts in his posts, so I cant see them being a prediction, just market expectation. It would be odd for two sources to be identical otherwise.

    Perhaps a more important release is tomorrow, preliminary GDP.

    stopped clocks and all that.

    maybe their call history is good but the hali call was head-spinningly out.

    still confident?
