Carney must be worried, people might think he should be doing something next ..... maybe he can give us some more forward guidance instead?0

FWIW, our macro guys at work see a rate hike each quarter through 2016 so the target rate being 1.25-1.5% at the end of 2016 with QE continuing to be rolled over.
As for the UK, imagine that the first rise will come in before Easter and rates will be at least 1% by the end of 2016.0 -

If it runs that way (all things being equal) I'll probably sell some property in a couple of years. Which strangely ties in with my original plan of 25 years ago, which was to sell when I'm about 60 years old (yikes 60! I'll have to get used to saying that soon).Chuck Norris can kill two stones with one birdThe only time Chuck Norris was wrong was when he thought he had made a mistakeChuck Norris puts the "laughter" in "manslaughter".I've started running again, after several injuries had forced me to stop0 -
This is where the Fed FOMC see rates being over the next few years. It's worth remembering that generally, UK nominal rates tend to be slightly high than in the US:0

My bet is that you are running around trying to sell property right now. Was property seen as more attractive than the stock market 25 years ago, I can`t remember? I do remember having unit trusts that did well in the late 80`s, before Japan popped.0 -

Quite surprised at the ramping up. I thought it would be more gradual than that. Interesting, thanks Gen.Please stay safe in the sun and learn the A-E of melanoma: A = asymmetry, B = irregular borders, C= different colours, D= diameter, larger than 6mm, E = evolving, is your mole changing? Most moles are not cancerous, any doubts, please check next time you visit your GP.
