Is there any good news?
没有好消息吗?

A little. The price of oil has slumped in recent weeks, which should mean cheaper petrol and could ultimately push down gas prices. Interest rates have been cut by 0.5% this week and further cuts are likely as the Bank tries to prop up the UK economy, which is good news for the third of borrowers on tracker mortgages. And while base rate cuts are usually bad news for savers, the fact that banks and building societies are seeking cash means they are still offering attractive interest rates on deposits.

很少。近几周,石油价格暴跌,这意味着便宜的汽油,最终将导致油价下跌。本周,银行试图救市,利率下调了0.5%并有进一步下调的可能,这对贷款追踪的第三方借贷者来说是个好消息。一般来说,基本利率的下调对于储蓄者是坏消息,而银行和建筑业正寻求现金这一事件意味着他们仍将为储蓄提供诱人的利率。
