    It's seasonally adjusted....

    So that's 0.1% IN ADDITION to the spring bounce.

    Nationwides SA was around 1.7%.

    If Halifax is using a similar adjustment then the actual price you pay for a house, as opposed to a seasonally adjusted index number, increased by £2916 last month.

    Now remind me again doire, when the price you pay for a house increases by £2916 in 30 days, that's called a crash, right? :)

    I think the position of the bears/bulls is currently that the bulls are saying stagnation whereas the bears are saying crash, yes?

    So the question isn't where is the spring bounce, it is where is the crash.

    Which means there aren't actually any bulls.
