Nobody claimed that Q2 was a "new peak".
Nobody boasted about it.
I know, I'll make a general reference that cannot be tied down.
[/geneer defence]
That’s nice Light. Apparently I’m defending an assertion I never actually made. How desperate are you?
I’ll say it again. Someone’s crowed over “every” new peak for the past few years. Regardless of which particular index its been.
Your pedantic smokescreening doesn't change the obvious.
IveSeenTheLight wrote: »Hmmm, the latest peak (just so happens that it's Q2 and the below graph shows it's the highest peak) has not been raised.
So your referring to lower peaks (generally)
Come on Light. Select a more appropriate Y scale please. Your figures are floating between 2 bars in a 5 bar chart. :rotfl:
Sorry, but I’m wondering what your point is. Was last quarters meaningless statistical skew more relevant than anyof the previous peaks.

You’re clearly the one trying to change the scope of discussions champ.
A bit dishonest of you to suggest otherwise.
But not unlike you.

:rotfl:Though I see you've not elected to include those normal seasonal trends in your graph (on account of the laughter it would no doubt generate).
Tell you what light. If you are maintaining "normal seasonal variations", wouldn't that then make YOY the perfect figure to view?

I really must avoid threads with Aberdeen, Edinburgh or HPC in the title - they are very boring.0

Fascinating graph there ISTL.
Perhaps geneer could point out where he doesn't think city centre properties have been in an upward trend since Q1 2009.“The great enemy of the truth is very often not the lie – deliberate, contrived, and dishonest – but the myth, persistent, persuasive, and unrealistic.
Belief in myths allows the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought.”

Interesting I thought you saidI didn't specifically say Q2 "new peak" thread.
I said "new peaks". Generally.
I ask again thenIveSeenTheLight wrote: »Care to show the link to the Q2 peak thread?
There's only one person crowing about these figures and it's you.
You can't even accept that the Q3 drop is less than the Q2 rise.
I'll say it again, the figures are portraying a period of relative nominal stagnation.
Whilst some months / quarters appear to go up or down, this is reflective of the methodology of how the figures arecompiled, amplifying the effective noise.
Indeed, if you really want to get pedantic about it, the trend is still up.:wall:

I dare say.
Ok, here is your breakdown.
Unfortunately the ROSEA quarterly data only goes back to Q4 2007, but nonetheless
What is you context and analysis on the breakdown statistics shown in graphical form?
Incidently, the ROSEA does provide an easy downloadable excel timeline for the whole of Scotland.

Okay, they're broadline averages but here's Aberdeen
and here's Edinburgh
