The theme of the spring Market Trends event is “Ignorance is Bliss Until it Isn’t.” As market noise and recession speculations intensify, is covering your ears and plowing forward the better path? In the capital markets, debt funding is scarce and costly, with the impacts of elevated interest rates continuing to plague deals and the residential resale market. The space markets have been resilient, but for how long? The region may not be able to return to the bliss of ignorance.
