About this episode

This episode discusses the impact of the January weakening in UK money supply growth amidst the credit crunch and pandemic.

This is the latest in my series of podcasts explaining how economics works in the credit crunch and now virus pandemic era. This week I give my thoughts on the January weakening in UK money supply growth. Q: will 10 year UK Gilt rate hit 5% this time? Given the ECB is 100% to raise rates if this war prolongs, do you think Bailey will abandon QT, raise rates or both? I know you have covered this to an extent in your excellent blog today Is the war against Iran a convenient vehicle for UK Chancellor Rachel Reeves to blame all her mismanagement of the economy?
