2024 Predictions Review
Rob reflects on his property finance and macro predictions for 2024, assessing the accuracy of each forecast made at the beginning of the year. The predictions covered a range of topics, including gold prices, the Bank of England's base rate, the commercial property market, house prices, oil prices, and a wildcard prediction regarding the U.S. presidential election...
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- The prediction that gold would hit $2,500 was accurate, with gold peaking at $2,800 later in the year, marking it as one of the best-performing assets.
- The expectation that the Bank of England would increase its base rate to at least 7% was incorrect, as the rate remained significantly lower, around 4.5% to 4.75%.
- The prediction of a collapse in the commercial property market did not materialise, as the market remained stable in the UK despite some global concerns.
- The forecast that house prices would increase by 5% year-on-year was also incorrect, with data showing a slight decline of 0.3% compared to the previous month.
BEST MOMENTS
"The first prediction was that gold would hit $2,500 amid economic meltdown. Now, I'm going to give myself a point for this because gold certainly hit $2,500 at the latter end of the year."
"The second prediction was that the Bank of England would increase its base rate to at least 7%. This is completely incorrect. I haven't fared well with this."
"The third prediction was that the commercial property market collapses. Again, I have to give myself a big X on the spot for that one. That hasn't happened."
