The weekly growth rate may still be slightly biased downwards

because the week it's being compared to (31 Dec - 6 January) probably still contains some of the 'Christmas backlog'. So was artificially a bit too high. And therefore the weekly growth rate is artificially a bit too low.

But still - there clearly are signs of stabilisation / downturn. Especially in London & the SE. (And even some very, very early signs that the crazy growth rates in Liverpool may have plateaued.)
