ALEX BRUMMER: An utterly dismal economic picture ...and Reeves has only herself to blame

Daily Mail

How deceitful, how stale, Labour’s election pledges look now. Notoriously, Rachel Reeves hiked taxes by £40 billion in her first Budget, thanks to a vicious increase in employers’ National Insurance – a move that is having a baleful effect on the very ‘working people’ she and her colleagues mendaciously promised to protect. At the very least – after the Tories …

As the Bank of England holds interest rates, should we fear ‘stagflation’?

The Independent

Should “stagflation” be our word of the day? Concern about the other problems might explain why the Bank of England’s committee voted the way it in deciding to hold rates even when other central banks have been cutting. The doves this time were concerned about Britain’s “weakening labour market” – although it would have to weaken a lot for Britain …

Why Putin’s inflation battle is weakening Russia from within

The Telegraph

There is no better signal that money is tight than Putin’s decision to appoint a trained economist with zero military experience as his defence minister. “The risk is that a slowdown in growth will become much more pronounced than moderation in inflation which could mean that Russia might be facing a scenario of stagflation as early as next year.

Attendees interviewed by Bloomberg News during the proceedings talked about the reopening of China, the warmer-than-expected winter, which has helped keep energy prices down, and the expected surge in other commodity prices that hasn’t occurred.

The Independent

The term “stagflation” still has an odd, almost theoretical air to it. The economy shrank by a worse-than-expected 0.3 per cent in the third quarter of the year – an annualised decline of 1.2 per cent against a “normal” contemporary growth figure nearer to 2.0 per cent, and historical averages between 2.0 per cent and 3.0 per cent.

From the Great Moderation to anxiety over Great Stagflation

Live Mint

The world economy is undergoing a radical shift. This period is usually explained by central banks’ move to credible inflation-targeting policies after the loose monetary policies of the 1970s and governments’ adherence to relatively conservative fiscal policies. In both cases, inflation initially remained low, given demand shocks, and loose monetary, fiscal and credit policies prevented deflation. Central banks are thus …
