The Price of Gold


Amongst all the political strutting when the UK economy came out of recession thanks to 1% economic growth in Q3 of 2012 was an absolute gem that our great leaders of Westminster decided not to tell us……we came out of recession thanks to a once in a lifetime economic party designed to make the UK money. AKA The Olympics.

And that is the bigger story……it took something so vast to take us out of recession that there is genuine concern for the UK economy in the short term.
 
I will leave you with just one thought on the subject:

In every Olympics ever held (except Beijing 2008), every host nation has suffered an economic slump the following year.

Let’s hope those gold medal memories last long into 2013 as they will have to be paid for!
