Welcome to Financial Foot in Mouth
Unfortunately for our experts, the fact that their predictions may be expressed with admirable conviction does not always make them correct.
I believe the time has arrived for our persuasive forecasters to be held to account for some of their more wayward pronouncements – and, with your help, this website provides the opportunity to do just that.
And, to make things interesting, contributors will be entered into a quarterly competition and given the chance to win fine champagne or wine.
