Signpost Quarterly Update, April 2008

Light at the end of the tunnel

Despite the markets' recent troubles, we reckon that rather less bad news on US housing in future, coupled with continued policy intervention from the US authorities, should lead to a shift in mood and subsequent economic recovery. So, shimmering through the current gloom, there may now be light at the end of the tunnel.




The True Value of Wealth

This fourth volume of Barclays Wealth Insights examines what it means to be wealthy today. We look at the factors beyond money that the wealthy consider important, and explore the changing patterns of behaviour that are being driven by the ongoing democratisation of wealth.
