HPC will happen anyway, rate rises are a sideshow.

I'm sure one of these days you might be right? Could you tell us when?

You are so far to one extreme but you think you are in the middle and can't see how crazy your predictions/hope is.

Interest rates won't rise in the way your hope. Why would the bank of England or government allow foreign speculators to profit with a jump in rates for a high real rate of return. That is to say don't expect rate rises unless inflation is increasing. If you crazily expect say 10% rates then pencil in 10% inflation. I wouldn't be too concerned if I could increase rents by 10% a year even if its a 0% real increase it wipes away my debts.

Just been on oddschecker to see if any bets can be laid on interest rates being cut by 0.25pc on Friday. Regrettably no odds showing...

The betfair market isn't particularly liquid, but it seems to currently be about:

0.50% - 4/5
0.25% - 5/4

If WE DO LEAVE the EU, all those migrants have to leave, leaving thousands of flats empty

Not only all those foreigners leaving the UK in the coming years, nut far fewer will now be coming here than expected.

Who will occupy all these new properties now that we havent got all these Europeans coming here as was once thought?

It never ceases to amaze me how the perma prop bulls still try to talk up the bubble :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

After the Olympics London will burst, its not only moneyweek saying it. When London starts to fall the rest of the country will nosedive!

That was from July 2012. How did that prediction work out or did you mean you expected a London crash after the Rio Olympics?

Moneyweek!

I just heard through contacts of 2 Asian buyers mobilising to buy flats in London barely a days after the £ crashed.

It's sometimes said of people like Crashy that a stopped clock is right twice a day.

In fact, that need not follow. If the clock has stopped because of a mechanical fault such that the big hand is jammed pointing at 6 and the little hand is jammed pointing at 3, these hand positions mean nothing. They don't mean it's half-past three, because if it were, the little hand would be half-way between the 3 and the 4. Such a position of the hands indicates no actual time at all.

So a stopped clock can be wrong all the time, as can a clock that's always fast or always slow.

I'll leave others to work out to what extent the above applies to Crashy "130% BCR" Time's posts.

The market has now moved, indicating that a cut to 0.25% is more likely, next Thursday.

Weren`t you predicting a Remain vote a couple of weeks ago?
