UK Meltdown Continues

This week has seen the Bank of England expanding their rescue efforts in the hope of stopping fire sales but then also announced yesterday that these measures will only run to the end of the week. Higher interest rates have been hitting the UK housing market and this means, unusually for the UK, that repaying the current 6% 5-year fixed mortgage rate will actually work out more expensive than paying rent.
The UK’s unemployment rate has fallen to its lowest since 1974 which might sound like positive news, but low unemployment also fuels inflation. So in this live stream, I will discuss what’s been happening in the UK, the problems that we face and what this means for investors.

So, with all our money in the banks, why aren't they paying US interest. After all, it's OUR money they are lending out to people and businesses. Or should we just keep a minimal amount in the banks and keep it all under the mattress like my grandmother did?

3 monetary faults and their fixes. Our world has 3 fundamental practices that are problematic. If we dont understand the root causes of a problem we will address the symptoms or actors, not the causes. The 1st is that large private and Central banks have obtained the Exclusive franchise to create ALL new Currency as Debt, with interest attached. An increasing population needs an increasing currency, but it is all created as debt bearing interest. This indebts the whole world, every person, every government, in totally unpayable debts, enslaving us all to bankers through personal debt or ever increasing excessive taxation, surcharges, permits, licences, registrations, regulations, fees, rates, duties, fines, levies, adinfinitum, of which an increasing volume goes straight to the debt creators, who created it for free. (At zero cost to themselves.) 2nd. Virtually no limitation plus fractional banking allows banks to effectively create massive new Currency volumes, blowing massive bubbles (in housing/stocks) which devalues everyone's savings, work, pension by raising all prices. Meanwhile taxation creates artificial demand for fiat currency. The fix ? Go back to Sound Metalic Money and stop all banks and financial institutions loaning out more than they have on deposit. Return legal currency creation to national treasury departments with a zero Inflation policy. This will not create inflation like some bankers/economists would like to have you think. It is not WHO creates currency that drives the constant devaluation of your money & work, it is THE VOLUME per population and productivity. The banks increased the base currency supply by over 65 % since March 2020. This is further multiplied by fractional banking. You can't spend it off planet, and we've had no increase in population or productivity. How can it not devalue our savings, wages and retirement funds by at least 50% as it enters the economy ? 3rd. Fiat currency whether paper or digital has no intrinsic value, thus it cannot be used as a long term store of value, particularly in an ever expanding fiat system. The fix ? Return to constitutional Silver, Gold, Copper & Nickle currency, designated by weight not cents/dollars. These will find their own local value. These can't be printed to oblivion, have intrinsic value, and are a safeguard against selfish human nature. Continue to keep the manufacture of Gold & Silver rounds by private mints & foundries to help keep the government mints honest as to premiums. Do not allow bankers and economists trained in the current system to con you into believing there isn't enough Metalic Money. You mix 1% gold, 99% copper, you have a Gold backed currency. Same with Silver and Nickle. Mint 10th ounce, 2 10ths, 5 10ths and 1 ounce. Never give it a 'value number,' which is always a lie. Give it its weight & purity, and let the market place decide what it will buy. Call it 'slow money" like 'slow food.' It's slower for sure, but it's 10 times better for you. Necessary to nationalise mines & pay shareholders out in metal. Correct these 3 Principles and >80 % of a nation's problems would disappear. Do not allow your masters the Debt slave creator's to tell you it can't be done. It is easily done. Beware. The WEF wants you totally enslaved with Digital currency. Convert your garbage fiat currency into Gold and Silver or prepare for destruction.

I believe there is a misunderstanding. The transaction value of the bond is mixed with the fact that this bond will be repaid at maturity. There are always people who want to buy or sell these bonds. The market value which is sadly dropping very low does not affect the annual interest or the fact that the initial money invested will be refunded.

[@mario7027]

Right, which makes me think whether these bonds are a bargain buy now that they are at such a low price? Though I'm not sure how much further they could go down if interest rates and inflation keep going up.

If interest rates are put up to historically normal levels the the value of a 68 year 3.5% bond is obviously going to fall. There seems to have been some assumption that the free money and low interest rates was going to keep going indefinitely.

[@andyballard1883]

Hi Ramin, I think your chart showed that the BoE buying intervention has not stabilized yeilds and the reason was that the government fiscal policy just does not add up. That bring the case if they continue buying after Friday it will not ' fix' the problem because as you said the Government is not backing down on their fiscal corporation tax or NI plans

[@oneeleven9832]

The problem is a FIAT currency problem..the fuse was lit in 1971 & the mandarins think our debt based system based on nothing but belief can go on forever, by forever pulling currency from the future..frankly I’m amazed it’s gone on this long..the chickens are coming home to roost 🤷‍♂️

[@caparn100]

I can see why Andrew Baily wants to stop buying bonds as soon as possible because he has a target on inflation to maintain. All the new money the Bank of England are creating to buy these bonds is going into the economy and causing inflation, this is the opposite of his objective.

[@jauld360]

I know the usual introductory details of bonds, but the practical side does not seem to be covered anywhere I can find. For example, in your happy returns pod cast you mention 4% returns on one year UK gilts. I can see an instrument with the description 0.125% 31/01/2023 GBP1000 in my SIPP. For a traditional gilt, I understand that coupons are paid on the 22 January and 22 July, or the next business day. Since the maturation date is 0.125% 31/01/2023, does that mean that all of the coupons have been paid and the best outcome is getting nothing but my money back? It's these kind of details that don't seem to be described anywhere. Perhaps you could record a buyers guide for gilts?

Enjoyed the laid back presentation of the UK/Market Meltdown...I have to say though that even if it is by default...it is better to let interest rates rise higher now rather than later even though it will be painful for some ..In the West we now live in a world where it seems people must not go under but the price we all pay for that is the evil of inflation which hurts the poor the most ...If economic crisis were allowed to play themselves out ...although for some as in the early 1990s it would be painful proper price stability and growth could then be restored with rising living standards for all ...

What I haven't seen mentioned yet - When pensions funds start failing those schemes are going to end up on the government pension protection scheme. Means the government will have to issue yet more gilts to cover the shortfall of the pension schemes that fail = doom loop. Plus a significant number of pension scheme members will get a 10% haircut on the pension they expected to get.

There are a number of players in this debacle and it should not be overlooked that as well as the BOE and the GOV that the OBR hasn't covered itself in glory by not criticising the BOE. The OBR cannot criticise only one side when it is clear where the majority of the fault lies. When Mohammed el Arian was criticising the FED RES about being late to the party as early as October 2021 then it was clear that most other economies would also be late to act. The only difference between other economies was the amount some of them had borrowed to support their economies through the COVID crisis. If the OBR does not have a remit to comment on BOE policy then it is becoming increasingly clear that the voter on the street is not getting a GOV that runs the country. The voter is getting a GOV that ultimately is subserviant to the central Banks.

[@sprinkle61]

Lets get real for a moment, its not the UK government that put the pensions near default, its THEIR OWN LEVERAGE that did this. The fact that a pension fund would EVER take out leverage on a BOND portfolio is insane, its like they never even ran the numbers on what increasing rates would do. This is criminal mismanagement of retirement assets. If bonds wouldn't pay enough to make the payouts, they should have announced that upfront, and worked out a solution, maybe benefit cuts, maybe more stocks, this problem is happening all over the world, but levering up to the max was definitely the wrong decision, unless they were counting on Bailout Nation to cover them, when the inevitable happened...

Minus 1% on base rate is not a worth while tax cut for most people. The damage is coming from the reduction in corporation tax? not sure that's really inflationary for CPI, many companies will not make any extra profit due to recession. Others will not spend any bottom line improvement or will carry out share buy backs. Only actual investment in the company or significant increase in head count is inflationary. I'm very sceptical that this will happen on any serious scale.

Yeah, definitely go all in this week. I'll get my popcorn ready.

@@tastypymp1287 I waited for the CPI print and downdraft then bought in with my final 30pc pension cash...more GBP hedged China, and mainly GBP hedged world. That's me all in. Speak to you in a year or two ;). It's always darkest before the dawn. There could be more downside for sure. But that's a 75 hike in the bag for Nov, can't get much more negative than that. Not sitting on my hands fretting

@@nickseccombe1357 You might try making investing decisions based on data and facts rather than sophistry and platitudes. The market couldn't care less about your 'darkest before the dawn' cliché. You think this will be over in a year or two? How so? Because, well, you know, that's just how it's worked so far, right? Maybe. Maybe not. I don't hold an opinion either way. That's why I don't lose. I don't let my biases and heuristics muddy the water.

It worries me that Andrew Baillie is the governor of the BoE ( Jay Powell is a genius compared to him).

[@rajibear77]

Why don't the government and the BOE work together for the benefit of the country as a whole. How can you have one group just doing whatever they want without taking into account what the other group will have to do to mitigate the damage. Seems nonsenical to me. Never seen any business work like this.

How come you're not saying anything about all those interest-rate swaps purchased by the pension providers?

[@piyushjaiswal9283]

Everyone would like to avoid dealing with emergencies, well... that's what happens when you put too much trust in the financial system, governments and CBs
