本周早些时候的消费者价格指数报告显示,在PPI高于预期之后,美国的通货膨胀压力今年首次减轻。这可能表明美联储为缓解消费者价格压力所做的持续努力已开始取得成果。但是,我们仍远未达到2%,但也许美联储已经看到通货膨胀率终于走向下行了。在我看来,美联储需要进一步的数据来增强考虑降息所需的信心。
当今的长期高利率正在抑制经济活动,并面临衰退的风险。对于商业房地产行业来说,时间至关重要,因为我们已经处于衰退之中,我对今年降息的前景视而不见。
这种持续的通货膨胀严重挑战了商业房地产行业,尤其是在数万亿美元的债务到期的情况下。通货膨胀率上升增加了借贷成本,使现金流紧张并影响了房地产估值。
随着债务的到期,财产所有者将面临以明显更高的利率进行再融资,这导致偿债成本增加和盈利能力降低。这种现金流压力,加上更高的支出和更低的收入,造成了恶性循环。随着借贷成本的上升,房地产估值下降,投资者要求更高的回报,从而疲软了市场。这种螺旋式下降加剧了财务限制,有可能导致违约和市场不稳定,这种情况需要立即关注。
美联储能否在不引发新的经济挑战的情况下使我们在更大规模的崩溃之前摆脱这种螺旋式循环?
前进的道路可能需要根据经济数据进行货币政策调整,可能还需要采取更有针对性的财政干预措施来支持脆弱部门。
无论市场走向何方,我都对未来的机遇充满热情,我们的团队已经做好了应对挑战的充分准备。

即使美联储削减利率,超低利率的时代也结束了
“延伸并假装” ——正如哈姆雷特曾问过的一句名言:“要么成为,要么不成为”,我们也正处于关键启示的边缘。我们是否面临着利率持续上升的巨大转变,这是一个基本上被忽视的问题?从短期和长期来看,这种转变将如何影响商业房地产和其他资产类别?公共和私营部门是否为看似不可避免的事情做好了准备?今天,我们面临的问题多于答案,在更高的利率环境中,犹豫不决已不再可行。
与过去几次衰退(例如COVID、全球金融危机和互联网泡沫破裂)不同,由于利息成本极低,美联储大幅降低了利率,使商业地产所有者和贷款人即使在现金流为负数或微薄的情况下也能轻松参与 “延期和假装”。
今天,我们正处于商业房地产衰退之中,没有减弱的迹象。在强劲的就业市场的推动下,经济拥有相当强劲的实力,创纪录的流动性处于观望状态。我认为没有必要的催化剂可以将利率恢复到前几个周期的水平。因此,我不认为 “延期和假装” 是一种有效的策略,它会为更多的破产、丧失抵押品赎回权和强制出售做准备,因为我们处于新的利率模式中,或者可能只是恢复常态,不幸的是,这将对价值观,尤其是对较低市值利率的资产造成破坏。归根结底,在任何市场混乱中,对于那些具有决定性和流动性的人来说,将有关键的机会在正确的时机抓住这些机会。
