The recent rise in interest rates, I must say, doesn't seem to be effectively curbing inflation. Instead, it's creating additional financial challenges for individuals. Cutting interest rates might alleviate some of the pressure.
You make a valid point, It's clear that rising rates are a response to various economic factors, including increased imports and reduced exports. But I wonder if the continuous quantitative tightening and higher interest rates will eventually lead to some unforeseen consequences. Is it a good time to consider allocating some of our savings to stocks?
Shouldn't be dropping rates until inflation is under control for a very long time. Everything needs to come down in price, people should stop living beyond their means and hoping for lower rates.
UK: Ah the Fed are seeing the light with keeping their rates as they are (I would not call these rates high by any stretch of the imagination) The inflation rate measure in the US is much higher than they report, it`s a fudge and that explains why they have not dropped their rates as the figures would suggest. I don't want mortgage rates to drop as that fuels inflation with house prices increasing. Along with rentals and private dental charges and that another story. LOL
Doing my research on what that means, also Trump announced he will abolish Income Tax In USA. That probably would surge inflation as people would have a lot more cash to spend.
Doesnt seem to matter the housing market is hotter than ever , been trying to see 3 propertys with stags and Bradley's and both agents booked up for 2 weeks
In school the BOE would be done for plagiarism. “I was copying the FED”. Where else would you get away with it 😂. Would be hilarious to keep the BOE in a vacuum and have them make their own decisions based on the actual data!!
Americans are struggling, but here inflation is falling fast so interest rates should start to be lowered already. There are too many repossessions here in UK, I think I read it's ip 54% in a year and that's unfair. Rates should be 0.5% lower here in UK. BofE is too slow!
What about savers that have got no interest on thier savings for the past 2 decades? It's not all about people and businesses with debt that should be looked after. Its time for people to accept reality and take responsibility.
@nigelxavier883 For now, not when they lower rates. The point is that savers have been getting nothing, and people borrowing money benefitted from low rates. The time has come for rates to stabilise to historic rates, but it would not surprise me if the went to zero again. Debt is addictive

No mention of Saudi quitting the Petrodollar last Sunday then?

Since gdp has bottomed to zero now would help stimulate growth in the economy slightly. Always too little too late with BOE

You are right they should drop, we need to see how brave the BOE is.

@@TasmanianDevil22 There are high interest term savings accounts and unit trusts to invest your money in.

Debt is addictive
@@TasmanianDevil22 Interest rates will eventually go back to historic levels, which is 4% I think. There is too much private debt atm for sure.
Interest rates need to fall! People want to invest!
I agree
Wants and needs are two different things. Maybe people can buy homes now after saving, rather than investors pumping the market up again.
@@TasmanianDevil22 I'm trying to but prices are not falling fast enough. Some estate agents are overpricing properties.
