Well, on 31 December 2010, the base rate was 0.5% pa. On 31 December 2011, it was unchanged, still at 0.5% pa.

On 31 Dec 2010, the FTSE 100 stood at 5,900. By 31 Dec 2011, it had fallen 5.6% to 5,572.

[livejournal.com profile] skordh and [livejournal.com profile] firin were closest across the two questions.

I predit the interest rate will be significantly higher this time next year, because that is when I will be needing to move mortgages.

I was way off. Predicting this sort of thing is hard. Really hard. Which is why the people who have to do it for a living deserve their salaries.

I'm sticking with the principle that drove my second answer though - UK equities are still a good long-term investment.
