Robust growth in UK economy paves way for rate rise
By Anna Fifield, Economics Reporter
Published: January 23 2004 10:34

The British economy picked up sharply towards the end of 2003, with annual growth hitting 2.1 per cent, official figures showed on Friday.

The data signal that the world's fourth largest economy is expanding robustly, and analysts said they would give the Bank of England the green light to raise interest rates to 4 per cent next month.

The Office for National Statistics said that gross domestic product growth accelerated to 0.9 per cent in the fourth quarter, faster than the revised 0.8 per cent recorded in the previous three months and economists' consensus expectations of 0.8 per cent growth.

This was the fastest quarterly pace of growth since the first three months of 2000, when growth was 1.2 per cent.

The 2003 growth rate of 2.1 per cent was bang on Gordon Brown's estimate in last month's pre-Budget report.

Signs of strengthening growth were supported by figures showing retail sales volumes rose by 0.9 per cent in December, contrary to retailers' reports of a bleak Christmas trading period that forced widespread discounting.

December's growth took the annual pace of retail sales volumes to 4 per cent, much higher than the market expectation of 2.9 per cent.

Friday's data were viewed as critical to the Bank's next discussions, amid mixed signs about growth. "Our view is that they will raise rates by a quarter-point at that meeting, but only look for one more quarter-point hike after that, probably in the second quarter, given that inflation is not expected to pick up significantly," said James Knightley of ING Financial Markets.

Although inflation remains steady and the housing market is still buoyant, the pound's rise against the dollar and the unclear impact of November's rate rise were still a hurdle for raising rates, the minutes of the monetary policy committee's January meeting, published this week, showed.

Removing another hurdle, the British Chambers of Commerce on Thursday painted a rosy outlook for both services companies and the struggling manufacturing sector.

Growth in the fourth quarter was propelled by a 1 per cent expansion in service sector output.

Strong domestic demand means Britain has weathered the global downturn better than most of the world's leading economies. The figures come just days after the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development described the country's economic performance as "enviable".

The next MPC is due on February 4-5.

A friend just phoned to say that the Mail on Sunday financial section has recommended Trio as a buy so we could see some action tomorrow. Good luck everyone.

[davron8] 23/1/2004 20:19

ccullinane, that is a very interesting item and shows how Trio are looking to use there new advanced facilities to increase market share. Thanks for posting. I would think the price lift today may have in part been a result of this news.

I also found the following item interesting. The interims figure are up to the end 30 Sept. It seems like the next set of figures have got off to a flying start.

03/11/03 Record Month - A record number of deals were processed on UK-Locals in October 2003. A big Thank You to all those who use the site!

Don't know if this has had any affect on the share price but is taken from

" AIM Global Money Market Funds - Martin Brokers wish to announce that preliminary talks have begun with AIM Global (the money market fund provider) to produce an electronic delivery system for Money Market Fund transactions. Although discussions are at an early stage, we believe the advantages of such a system for our clients will become obvious. Watch this space for further developments. "

Some good buying is getting the share price higher now 24.5-25.5p +1p

[master rsi] 23/1/2004 08:56

Is moving on the right path, up on the bid to 24p

[cromarty] 22/1/2004 23:55

Refering to regulatory deposits further back in thread I believe money brokers only require 3 months expenses as deposit.Cash in this company is free and clear. Good company but they are begging to be bought. Where does a small but succesful niche broker go from here?

[ccullinane] 22/1/2004 14:04

I agree, usually expect a fall after the ex date but who knows!

[monty burns] 22/1/2004 12:43

So why does it start to go up after it goes ex-dividend? Why not buy a couple of days earlier and get the dividend.

Seems odd......

[ccullinane] 22/1/2004 12:41

Hopefully a push up through 24p could see us back up to 26p.

[master rsi] 22/1/2004 11:30

The shares are going higher and the chart is looking much better after the platform at 23.50p.

I have selected today the shares a good movement up from now on.

Monty, agree it's a bit frustrating at present. I do expect it to pick up afer updates at the AGm when the benefits of the reorganisation should be starting to come in. Hoping the forecast for this year will be very positive.

[monty burns] 21/1/2004 13:43

Thanks Ken. So we're effectively up 0.5p....back to where we were for whole of December, zzzzzzzz

[kenbachelor] 21/1/2004 13:18

Monty - Trio is marked XD on my monitor.

[monty burns] 21/1/2004 10:24

from the Final Results:

"the board to recommend for approval at the Annual General
Meeting a final dividend at 0.5p per share, which will be payable on 20 February
2004, to shareholders on the register on 23 January 2004."

Anyone know if this has this now gone quietly ex-div today, Wednesday, as with other UK stocks, or is it in fact still trading with the dividend?

Would be nice if the 0.5p has been realised without losing the 0.5p off the share price. Otherwise, desperately quiet and not many signs of life. Frustrating to watch so many other opportunities go begging while having a lot of capital tied up in these. Ah well, you pays your money and takes your choice.....
