BOE tomorrow at 12

50bp cut to....50bp expected!
good for your mortgages, rubbish for my savings

neilbond007

oh well... not a bad day all in all.
tends to go like that when you read forecasts that were basically going to be in the crap.

let's hope the rest of the week keeps going onwards and upwards.
I'm sure the interest rate drop tomorrow won't have much of an influence (?).
it's not like it'll be a shock of the magnitude of finding out "jimmy crankie" was infact a middle aged woman.... oh the nightmares...

I've given up saving and decided to blow it all on a holiday. Now the £ is at it's lowest in years what a great idea that was.

At least my mortgage has gone down, I'm now on a rate of 1.64 and with any luck it will be even less tomorrow.

funkyfin2000

yup my mortgage rate is a nice 1.76!

tomorrow even lower 1.26 hopefully

but the $$$!

Nationwide have just anmnounced they are loading there credit card from 6th May in case anyone didn't know! !!!!!

Morning

Cable opened in London around 1.4130, after reaching an overnight high of 1.4201

We have since had a big spike back up to 1.4198, and has currently settled back down around 1.4170

could be a cagey morning as we await the BOE and ECB rate decisions at 12.00 and 12.45 respectively

some way off at mom, but 1.4225/30 is a key fibonacci level
