    I think we will be out of this mess by 2015 and I can see interest rates staying low (below 5%) until then too. So I don't see any large falls or rises between now and 2015 just stagnation.

    I also see inflation coming back under control next year, so in real terms (from now) I can only see about a 10% drop.

    By the way thanks for pointing out the error of my ways on that post last night, which I have now deleted.

    Agree with you about interest rates but we will not be out of this mess for years. too much debt in the system. They are trying to inflate the debt away but I am not sure that it will work. We will wait and see.
