To everyone who's been calling for deflation - this is what deflation does. I've been saying for a long time that commercial real estate will lead the next financial crisis. And still, where I live, I see new commercial office space projects being built all over the place. COVID didn't create the flight from the office; circumstances were already ripe for that to happen. It just sped up the inevitable transition. It won't be reversed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't disagree but commercial real estate is only one of them. Remember an old saying about People love deflation. Government and corporations hate it.

I just have not seen anyone calling for deflation. Inflation at levels above 3-4% is a problem. Deflation is a major problem. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiberius Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 https://www.cnbc.com/2024/02/02/us-economy-added-353000-jobs-in-january-much-better-than-expected.html Job growth posted a surprise increase in January, demonstrating again that the U.S. labor market is solid and poised to support broader economic growth. Nonfarm payrolls expanded by 353,000 for the month, much better than the Dow Jones estimate for 185,000, the Labor Department’s Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday. The unemployment rate held at 3.7%, against the estimate for 3.8%. Wage growth also showed strength, as average hourly earnings increased 0.6%, double the monthly estimate. On a year-over-year basis, wages jumped 4.5%, well above the 4.1% forecast. The wage gains came amid a decline in average hours worked, down to 34.1, or 0.2 hour lower. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All_Pro_Bills Posted February 2 Share Posted February 2 1 minute ago, Tommy Callahan said: That's the danger here for the administration, They're telling us, whether the numbers are reflective of actual conditions or fake. the economy is humming along in great shape but its not translating to good times for the working person that has work multiple jobs, tap savings, and assume debt just to make ends meet. So the Fed holds off on rate cuts because of the job market numbers. Expect no rate cut in March. My expectation is the straw that breaks the Camel's back is going to be stress in Commercial Real Estate (it was housing last time, are we seeing a pattern yet?) which has been brewing below the surface for about a year now that erupts into a banking crisis which forces the Fed to once again move in to rescue the banks from loan defaults, lower property values, bankruptcies, and high vacancy rates. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
