UK Economy Tracker #10 – 2022 Q3

November 16, 2022 By Nigel

UK Inflation has risen sharply since the start of 2022 and dominates the media and politics today.  It is now having knock on effects, most notably on wage rises which are lagging behind inflation.  The aftermath of the COVID19 induced recession continues to be considerable economic uncertainty.

UK Economy Tracker #8 – 2022 Q1

May 31, 2022 By Nigel

Whilst COVID19 was ravaging the world in 2020 & 2021, I felt there was little point in updating my quarterly UK Economy Tracker.  Now the pandemic over in the UK, it’s time to see how much damage the pandemic did to the economy.  Going forward, the future is very uncertain but I hope by placing the latest data in the context of the past, I can discern what pointers I should keep an eye on.

UK Economy Tracker #7 – 2019 Q4

February 17, 2020 By Nigel

The mixed picture for the UK economy continued in Q3.  GDP growth is now at its lowest level since the 2008/9 recession but unemployment and inflation continues to be good.  The low level of growth though continues to be a drag on government finances.

UK Economy Tracker #4 – 2019 Q1

May 15, 2019 By Nigel

It’s taken 10 years but the UK is finally experiencing true wage growth that outpaces inflation.  With employment and economic activity at record levels, the UK economy should be in good shape but the basic problem of low growth is still there.  Our economy still needs to place itself on a stronger footing ahead of a rising probability of another recession in the near future.

UK Economy Tracker #2 – 2018 Q3

November 26, 2018 By Nigel

The headline of the third quarter of 2018 is that the UK continues to be sluggish but going in the right direction.  There is no question, the economy needs a pickup soon to place itself on a stronger footing ahead of a rising probability of another recession in the near future.

UK Economy Tracker #1 – 2018 Q2

September 9, 2018 By Nigel

The headline of the second quarter of 2018 is the lowest unemployment rate since 1975.  Economic Inactivity continues to be at record lows, inflation is falling and the budget deficit is shrinking.  However, GDP growth continues to be sluggish which means our pay is stagnating and we have record levels of debt to pay off.  History tells us that the odds of another recession soon will rise from now on so there is still a need to change the state of our economy.
