How low can you go?
Strolling towards Lower Thames Street yesterday evening, the Evening Standard ‘sales placards' were shouting – "Interest rates To Go To 0%". Now you really needed to buy the paper to see what the article said but as I was on my way out, I couldn't. Going back a few hours, Mervyn King, fronting the BoE at their release of the Quarterly Inflation Report, made it very clear that the Bank views the risks in the economy at present to be growth or rather the lack of it. He stated that inflation next year would fall to 1% with a possibility of it actually going negative in the 12-18 month timespan. This meant that interest rates would be cut further and sooner rather than later. HSBC this morning are calling for a 50bp cut at each of the next 4 MPC meetings. Personally, I think that is too much. I can see real interest rates being cut to zero but with core inflation still sitting at a tad above 2% and not really moving, I feel a further 100bp cut would be ample.
