Whats confusing about the phrase "I stand corrected".
Though really, what is confusing is why so many posters seem to consider "the 70% club" an actual thing.
I'm glad you have decisively clarified the reality of this of course.
Perhaps in future we will be less likely to see people having imaginary arguments with an imaginary "club".0 -

:rotfl: I stand corrected.
Of course it appears that what you really mean is that Macaque is the 70% club.
You can understand my confusion I hope. Numerous bullish posters keep making reference to predictions of 70% falls as if they were some kind of majority opinion.
Given that we're actually talking about a single poster, I wonder why they make reference to them at all.
I get it, all the -70% posters are Macaque sockies, even Brit :eek:Also below is the link to Commodity Watch where 5 experts from Estate Agents to investors highlight how badly the market will fall. My 50% fall looks very conservative after listening and watching these programs. What is increasingly likely now to happen is 60-70% falls. This is based on now 3 times salary combined with raising a large deposit. The reason properties will fall beyond the 50% is due to the lower lending rate and the delay lag it will take the majority of people to raise the deposit especially due to the economic conditions ie rapid inflation. Hence we are going to have a housing price crash over fall due to lack of buyers due to the time to save the deposit.

100% increase. (Just in case you were having trouble with the maths :rotfl: I know it's a strength of yours but cant be too careful :rotfl:)
With that rate of inflation you're turning into quite the 70% club bull.
Indeed. The number of 70% club members has soared. Surged. Rocketted.
