Whilst not surprising and there'll be worse figures to come in the Autumn and Winter, the main question for me is why the figure seems to be so much higher than other main economies. The USA/Canada have a huge amount of their own energy sources and ...

Consumer price inflation, UK: July 2022

Very good advice for beginners and those with shallow pockets. Very good advice indeed. However, with loads of respect, I'll disagree with you to a small extent. It IS possible to determine post-News Trading Positions on the basis of Technical ...

Empire State Manufacturing Survey

Precisely the point I was making.

Producer Price Indexes - July 2022

My first thought too but on reflection I decided against commenting on the basis that in a Zero-sum game you can have the perverse situation where one person's good data is another's bad, ergo one person's bad dat is another's good.

Yes, that's the opinion I've been forming. Thanks for responding.

Oil Price Cap? More like a Mad Cap idea. How's the differential between Supply and Demand going to be paid for? You can't just wish it away. The equation balance void has to get filled by something: e.g. By even MORE Government money-printing, which ...

Did you MEAN to write that your order was a USDGBP Buy Stop @ $1.23? The price hasn't reached $1.23 to trigger it anyway, never mind all the other 'gapping' points made by me and others. If you're new to the game and you have shallow pockets, a STP ...

Consumer Price Index - July 2022

No one with whom to match your order, at your price, in the moment of a huge rush of contracts being exchanged well beyond. The MM's will take the orders where they can get best profit. Your order is not an obligation. It happens from time to time ...

UK plans for potential power cuts to industries and homes in January

I'd enjoy a debate with you. But that's not for here. You've made some good points but I'd disagree about inherited wealth. Heirs can very easily destroy it just as much as take advantage. Should it be right that any wealth acquisition be taxed out ...

UK plans for potential power cuts to industries and homes in January

My opinions on that subject would be too long for interest here. In broad principle about the distribution of wages, productivity and the wealth gap, yes, I agree wholeheartedly that there is a problem with the differential between earnings of those ...

UK plans for potential power cuts to industries and homes in January

IMO it all rests on Energy Inflation. Energy is at the centre of everything and all other forms of inflation are merely derived from that, just now. Yes, Wage Inflation will kick off BUT not as much as Energy Inflation. Global demand for energy is, ...

UK plans for potential power cuts to industries and homes in January

I am pleased to see that someone is devising longer-term plans than what happens tomorrow. Whilst a few on here are stirring up and making out that this is a sign of some UK-specific issue, I'd be less jingoistic when you think about what is likely ...

UK plans for potential power cuts to industries and homes in January

Broadly agreed and in principle but I think it's a little more nuanced. If inflation is higher than the Bank or Savings Rate, then everyone is losing on any liquid assets. It's the fixed, illiquid assets that, on paper, are increasing at something ...

Detectives should never rule out any option until it's proven negative. On the basis of Russia's historical performance with regard to reality and Fake News, certainly I wouldn't rule out a more elaborate strategy. It MIGHT be just a power-play and ...
