    Well there is a danger of inflation getting a bit low and not enough money has been printed according to Adam Posen who presumably has index linked everything and has stashed away his cash some place safe.

    Bank of England (BoE) policy maker Adam Posen has fanned the debate on whether to raise interest rates by claiming that inflation is likely to fall to 1.5% by the middle of next year...The BoE Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) member has been a lone voice in favour of expanding the Bank’s asset purchase programme, more commonly known as quantitative easing, by £50bn to £250bn.

    Almost my counterphobic crustacean; have no fear, increasing house price valuations will continue their asymptotic rise to a fiscal nirvana enjoyable by all.

    House price crash doom

    http://www.landreg.gov.uk/assets/lib...11_x1p5cst.pdf

    February's data shows a
    negative monthly house price
    change of -0.8 per cent. The
    average house price in England
    and Wales is now £162,215.

    The annual change is also
    negative, at -1.7 per cent, which
    is the second month in a row in
    which the figure has been below
    zero. This is also the largest fall
    since October 2009.

    Sales volumes averaged 56,257
    per month from September to
    December 2010. This is a fall
    from the 65,939 average for the
    same period 12 months before
    this.

    I'll be buying more gold.
