    House prices and share prices

    …are f**king boring. Discuss. No don’t bother, I’ve had enough of it.

    Will the stock market recover before house prices or the other way round?

      Will people shut up about the recession before it ends or the other way round?

          When will people in the pub start talking about something more interesting?

            When the recession ends they'll stop speaking about it, then they'll start talking about house prices.
            Hard Brexit now!

              I have heard enough from the media. But great adversity brings great opportunity. So I want to hear people's views. Especially sasguru. And from any trained economists (I think we have a few : oracleslave, HAB?)

                  On a completely unrelated note, my dinner last night was lovely.

                    A little off topic, and my apologies to the OP for doing so...

                    Being an economist merely makes it all the more aggravating when you see who the media wield out to discuss what is happening and what is going to happen. Like I've said, if someone sits on TV or writes in a newspaper claiming that they know what is going to happen - they are lying, or they have an agenda. The ones who know what they are talking about are the ones that talk in tones of "I don't know, but x would tend to indicate y...though you should bear in mind z"

                    ...noticed how less often they are digging up economists that speak like that? (sad gits like me notice these things)

                    A clue to how the media operate, and that they are working to an agenda. Capita have recently been awarded a £25 million contract to employ 35,000 workers (yes, thirty five thousand) as part of the 2011 census. Granted these are mostly temp jobs and not exactly top drawer, but they are jobs nonetheless. No mention of that anywhere...certainly not on the BBC. If it had been 350 job losses, it would make every news bulletin.

                    Kinda makes you wonder what's going on, doesn't it?

                    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? - Epicurus
