MPC must be out of ideas, changing interest rates or mopping up circulation won't reduce fuel prices


And this is what I stated about those fuel price controls on March 31st.

[quote=hisah]@Kizee1 - MPC has nowhere to run nor hide. If they hike by 100bps the GDP estimate model will crumble, if they don't do anything, they're still cooked! And what will that do to gubberment spending/funding with Hague circus, constitution reform funds and definitely food imports plus oil and an upcoming election... I leave that to your imagination.

And those gubberment bonds held by the not so smart banks will become paper or is it losses in their books. What happens to the banks lending rate and their lending spree... We'll see this tape by Q3.

Inflation spikes to 12.05% still breaches my estimate of 11%, but in line with my double digit expectation. I'm doing poorly in my math. No wonder my prof failed me for being too poor in econs... smilePray Brick wall

On a brighter note, maybe my poor econs would be appreciated by MPC or gubberment since their poor track is brilliance? I'm thinking of converting my little Kshs savings into oranges or potatoes. They're more valuable anyway...

In the old formulae inflation would have reached 50% and putting in mind that the CBK benchmark is 5% ha!



CBR is actually at 6...i think mpc will do some drastic stuff maybe a 100 bpts hike...

what options do they have in ur view? a mop up= stronger kes.....exchange rate is the only variable in the ERC formula that the MPC can affect

KEPSA and KAM had warned the gubberment not to increase the min wage and it just did. When gubberment goes to war with capitalism, sh** hits the fan (SHTF)...

Don't worry; we went through the Goldenberg induced hyper-inflation from 1990-1993 and got out alive. Just tighten your belt, or figure out a way of making more money.
Nothing is real unless it can be named; nothing has value unless it can be sold; money is worthless unless you spend it.
