The borrowing costs of the UK are exploding… the UK 10y yield (purple) has almost caught up with Greece (red) and Italy (light green)… and if you can lose more than the entire annual yield overnight in a currency collapsing, who will come to rescue the UK…?

Now mortgage providers pull deals as pound crashes: Halifax withdraws fee-paying products while Virgin Money and Skipton Building Society stop loans to new customers amid market turmoil

• Lenders temporarily withdrew mortgage products today amid market chaos following the mini-Budget
• Chancellor Kwasi Kwarteng’s Emergency Budget caused nine mortgage lenders to pull new mortgage loans 
• The pound dropped to an all-time low of $1.035 against the US dollar today before clawing back the ground 

Hyperinflation chart of the day… UK 2 year gilts… most people in the UK have variable or short term mortgages… and imagine what will happen to govt debt interest payments…
