So, it's "are FC rates being manipulated down?" now? Shhh, yorkshireman might hear you.

So, it's "are FC rates being manipulated down?" now? I think they're just inflating their market size numbers (as far as lenders like you and I are concerned), I don't see it can have any effect, except very indirectly, on rates. 8>.

Well rates have been rollercoastering over last 48hrs - one month was down to 2.3% yesterday and i've just had 2.9% matched. If rates are being manipulated down it's not working! Jack P

"Somebody yesterday mentioned searching for yield. Whilst the supermarkets look certain to cut I still see major oilers at least holding payouts."

I was only passing comment on the contents of the attachment, You take a hatchet to the divi and your shares go up 15% in a day. Funny old game, as they say

It's true, and with around £1m at 5.9% I must admit I broke rank and lent at 5.8% instantly. I just can't be bothered waiting for the extra 0.1%, rather lend and got on with things..... Apologies for failing the prisoners dilemma..

The money I left on at 5.9% yesterday has moved up the queue by about 400k and should get lent today. I was a bit worried today's repayments might go on at 5.8% but that's not happened.
Today's 5.9% queue is a bit shorter than yesterday's, so hopefully the downward pressure is easing.

I reinvested at 5.9 earlier in the week, and it went in 3 days

I put some on at the back of the very long 5.9 Q on Wednesday, and it went out a couple of hours ago. It seems volumes have picked up a bit. Not sure if/when they'll reach my lonely bid near the front of the 6.0 % Q though .

.....I was a bit worried today's repayments might go on at 5.8% but that's not happened. Why didn't it happen! That's it, I'm sacking the rate manipulator that the thread title refers to. The rate only seems to go up no matter how much money joins the queue. They must be working for one of our competitors.....

Rates finally back to 6% and looking like they could go higher.
Time to get the Christmas money out.

It has been a very busy week, the seasonally high lending of January finally kicked off in financial style.... We might not hit our weekly record £9.8m, but we'll get close....
