Is it just me or does it feel like spring is in the air? This could be the week the economy finally sends out some green shoots of recovery. Rishi Sunak will doubtless be relieved by the economic indicators due to be announced.
Before we get ahead of ourselves, the caveat. UK plc is hardly off to the races. But January at least finished in the black, with a GDP growth of 0.2 per cent. Andrew Bailey, the governor of the Bank of England, has even been moved to opine that the “technical” recession he reported at the end of last year may already be over.
The economic week started with signs of the sun shining on the housing market. Property website Rightmove reported a 1.5 per cent rise in asking prices – a number that outpaced the historic 1 per cent average. The website also reported an uptick in buyer demand, despite what it called the “lacklustre spring Budget”, which contained little succour for first-timers struggling to get onto the ladder.
