12th Nov – UK is improving
I think the quarterly Bank of England report released Wednesday 11th give some good hints to the market. Particularly when we bear in mind that Bank of England has been very negative. The Bank forecast growth rates of 2.1 per cent for 2010 and 4 per cent for 2011. This is suddenly much higher than the outlook of private sector economists and the Treasury’s forecast.
Bank of England still tells us not to be too excited with the wording from the governor Mr. King “Small movements in quarterly growth rates will not alter the extent of the challenges now facing the economy, such is the scale of the fall in output over the past 18 months,” he said. “We have … only just started along the road to recovery.”
I fully agree that the recovery (where ever we look) will take a long time. Though, I take this as a further sign of a good chance that UK will leave the crisis before the European continent. I continue to like GBP and some UK stocks.
