Over the last year, Montreal's industrial market has gone from uncertainty to cautious optimism. In this episode, Axel Monsaingeon sits down with Mike Jager, co-founder and co-president of Rosefellow, to break down how one of Quebec's most active developers is navigating higher vacancies, tighter financing, and shifting tenant expectations—while quietly scaling into large-scale multi-residential projects.   Mike explains why Class-A industrial still wins in soft markets, how Rosefellow stayed disciplined when everyone else was chasing deals, and what it really takes to raise and deploy multiple funds while keeping investors, banks, and tenants aligned. He also shares Rosefellow's growing push into multi-residential in Quebec, Ontario, and the U.S., their data-driven approach to site selection, and why they've built a lean team that partners with "the best of the best" instead of trying to do everything in-house. The conversation wraps with Mike's vision for giving back to the next generation, promoting women in construction, and staying grounded through market cycles.   Topics & Timestamps

In this powerful episode, Vinney Chopra and Gualter Amarelo dive into a real conversation about what it really takes to build millionaire-level passive income in today's market. From hotel takeovers to multifamily turnarounds, both share honest insights on what's working, what's broken, and how investors can make smart, life-changing decisions without wasting years learning the hard way. It's real talk, backed by real numbers, and grounded in decades of combined experience.   They break down the mindset and mechanics behind choosing a business—or an investment—that actually has the capacity to generate a million dollars. Along the way, they unpack:

This episode takes you inside the reality of becoming a systems integrator and growing a technical services business from the ground up. Vlad and Dave share their personal experiences launching and running integration companies, the lessons they learned as engineers moving into business ownership, and the challenges that come with finding customers, choosing technologies, setting rates, managing cashflow, and hiring the right people. This is a detailed and candid look at what the journey actually requires. It is also a practical conversation that breaks down how technical professionals can evolve beyond pure engineering work in order to build a sustainable integration practice in the world of manufacturing and industrial automation.The episode begins by grounding the definition of a systems integrator in the context of modern industrial environments. Vlad and Dave explore the many different shapes and levels of integrators across the ISA eighty five and ISA ninety five landscape, from controls and PLC programming to SCADA development, MES implementations, and specialized software delivery. They also explain why customers hire integrators, why the most valuable asset is always the people, and why the hardest part of the work is rarely technical. Vlad shares insights from his decade in engineering and operations roles at Procter and Gamble, Kraft Heinz, and Post Holdings, followed by senior engineering and management positions at multiple systems integration firms. Dave brings his experience from aerospace, OEM machine building, distribution, and running his own integration business focused on manufacturing execution systems and ignition development.The conversation then shifts to the earliest stages of starting an integration company. Vlad and Dave describe the moment when most professionals decide to go out on their own, which usually begins with feeling constrained by corporate structures or wanting more autonomy over the projects they work on. They break down the difference between being a contractor and building a long term business and why many technical founders underestimate the reality of sales, marketing, legal administration, cashflow management, and relationship building. The discussion highlights how timing and relationships drive early opportunities far more than technical ability and why every contract carries its own risk profile that needs to be negotiated with care.Listeners are then guided through the real startup requirements for a systems integration company. This includes liability insurance, business registration, accounting and bookkeeping tools, mileage and expense tracking, choosing an internal technology stack, managing licenses, and understanding when to invest in programming software or rely on customer owned licenses. Vlad and Dave explain the role of net thirty, net ninety, and even net one hundred eighty payment terms and why long payment cycles can destroy cashflow if not anticipated correctly. They also share practical frameworks for setting hourly rates, pricing time and materials versus fixed projects, and calculating the true cost of travel, administration, and sales time that erode billable hours.Timestamps00:00 Introduction to systems integration month01:10 Vlad background and career in manufacturing and automation03:00 Dave background and experience running an integration company04:40 What a systems integrator actually is in modern manufacturing07:50 The blurry line between integrators machine builders and software providers08:50 Why people decide to start a systems integration company12:40 Contractor mindset versus building a real business16:50 Early startup requirements insurance registration tools licenses22:00 Sales marketing and the challenge of finding early customers27:00 How timing relationships and visibility drive new work30:00 Referrals partnerships and brand building for technical founders33:20 Understanding financials hourly rates project rates and risk40:00 Negotiating payment terms net cycles and cashflow management43:30 Technology choices internal tools external platforms and vendor ecosystems51:10 Should you specialize or learn every platform54:20 When to say no and how to evaluate incoming work58:00 Hiring your first employee and the reality of scaling01:03:20 The future of systems integration over the next three to five years01:08:00 Final career advice for engineers considering integration01:12:00 Resources and closing thoughtsSystems integrators articlehttps://www.joltek.com/blog/system-integratorsManufacturing consulting insightshttps://www.joltek.com/blog/manufacturing-consultingDigital transformation in manufacturinghttps://www.joltek.com/blog/digital-transformation-in-manufacturingIndustrial cybersecurity fundamentalshttps://www.joltek.com/blog/industrial-cybersecurity-ics

Many legacy industrial brands assume that steady sales today mean they will stay strong tomorrow. In this episode, we talk about why that belief can create blind spots for companies with long histories, loyal customers, and strong reputations.Donna welcomes Ken Spaeth from Cutting Tool Engineering Magazine (CTE) to explore how industrial brands can protect their visibility and maintain trust in a market that is always changing. Ken works directly with manufacturers every day, and he shares what he sees separating brands that stay top of mind from those that slowly fade out of view.Together, Donna and Ken discuss why marketing is not an expense. It is a relationship-building investment that keeps your company present in your industry, especially with new engineers and younger buyers entering the workforce. They also talk about the value of consistent messaging, how industry-specific publications support thought leadership, and how print, digital, and AI can all work together.This episode is especially helpful for leaders at legacy industrial brands who want to stay relevant, maintain visibility, and support long sales cycle growth through thoughtful, relationship-based marketing.In this episode, you will learn:Why legacy industrial brands cannot rely only on past relationshipsHow consistent visibility keeps your brand top of mindWhy print and digital advertising still matter for technical buyersHow AI is influencing the buying cycle and strengthening contentThe importance of face-to-face interactions in a digital worldHow relationship-based B2B marketing supports long-term growthKey Topics and Timestamps:00:00 Why legacy brands still need consistent marketing00:53 Introducing Ken Spaeth and Cutting Tool Engineering01:55 Why business still runs on relationships04:34 How AI supports visibility and faster buying cycles07:05 The role of trusted industry-specific magazines09:01 Marketing as an investment that protects future sales12:36 Why consistent advertising matters for long sales cycle companies17:38 The continued importance of in-person meetings22:57 Combining traditional and modern marketing approaches25:05 The long-term value of print and digital advertising29:09 How AI supports storytelling for industrial brands30:39 Ken's path into CTE and the manufacturing world32:33 Inside CTE's “Bourbon with the Editor” podcastConnect with our guest: Ken SpaethCutting Tool Engineering Magazine // Website: www.ctemag.comListen to their podcast: Bourbon with the Editor - https://open.spotify.com/show/0kZP6XcglHqnE6wswNzwoI?si=1671d8c15b3540a1 *** Reach out to dpeterson@worldinnovators.comif you'd like help building a marketing strategy that builds relationships and/or AI training for individuals or full teams. *** Visit www.worldinnovators.comfor more resources on building stronger marketing and leadership strategies. *** Subscribe to the B2B Marketing Excellence & AI Podcast for weekly insights into marketing, leadership, and the future of AI.

Esta semana en AutoFM reunimos un equipo excepcional para un programa muy especial dedicado a la historia, presente y futuro de Santana. Participan Antonio R. Vaquerizo, José Lagunar, Alex Moya, Rubén Gómez, Javier Quilón, Fernando Rivas, José María Cancer (director general de Cesvimap), Enrique Lorenzana (director comercial de Santana Motors), Román Escudero Gallego (ingeniero superior electromecánico del ICAI y director de compras y financiero en Land Rover Santana durante 20 años), Luis Giménez-Cassina (hijo de Alfredo Giménez-Cassina, socio fundador de Metalúrgica Santana) y Josema Vallejo, vicepresidente de la asociación Una Policía para el Siglo XXI. Los orígenes de Santana: de la metalurgia al 4x4 más español Comenzamos repasando la historia de Metalúrgica de Santa Ana, fundada el 24 de febrero de 1955 gracias a un grupo de empresarios liderados por Alfredo Giménez-Cassina y Antonio Sáenz, que invirtieron 3 millones de pesetas para producir 1.000 máquinas agrícolas. La fábrica creció rápidamente: amplió capital, fabricó cosechadoras, se diversificó y en 1958 firmó acuerdos clave con Citroën y después con Land Rover. Pese a la autarquía y las dificultades para importar maquinaria, los primeros Land Rover Serie II ensamblados en Linares llegaron al mercado en 1959, al mismo tiempo que los ingleses. La demanda no dejó de crecer: 296 unidades en 1960, más de 900 en 1963, casi 2.000 en 1965 y hasta 8.000 en 1976. Luis Giménez-Cassina comparte además cómo vivió todo aquello de niño. Cómo se gestionaba una industria así en los años 50 y 60 Continuamos con el contexto industrial y social de la época. Tras la visita de Franco a Jaén se impulsó el Plan Jaén, que permitió expropiar terrenos, ofrecer bonificaciones fiscales y atraer industria a la zona. Hablamos de cómo se organizaban los horarios, los retos de infraestructura —incluyendo la electricidad y las prensas de estampación— y cómo se vivía en Linares en plena industrialización. Luis Giménez-Cassina aporta recuerdos muy valiosos de aquel ambiente y Román Escudero nos ayuda a comprender cómo se profesionalizó la gestión en las décadas posteriores. Seguridad vial con Hyundai: la baliza V16 según la experiencia real de carretera En nuestra sección de seguridad vial recibimos por meet a Josema Vallejo, vicepresidente de Una Policía para el Siglo XXI, “porchista” declarado y con veinte años de servicio en carretera en la ATGC. Nos da su visión práctica y fundamentada sobre la baliza V16, cómo se emplea en situaciones reales y qué mejoras puede aportar a la seguridad de todos. El nuevo proyecto de Santana Motors Enrique Lorenzana nos presenta el renacimiento de Santana Motors: una alianza formada por tres empresas, un plan coherente, una red de concesionarios definida y un día clave —el 5— donde conoceremos más detalles. Además, avanzamos la hoja de ruta de producto: pick-up, todoterreno para 2026, otro todoterreno para 2027 y la presencia de la marca en el Dakar 2026. Sección AutoScout24: coches que salieron de Linares Alex Moya lidera la sección de AutoScout24, un portal que no solo conecta a compradores y vendedores, sino que ofrece transparencia y datos para tomar mejores decisiones. Esta semana buscamos vehículos fabricados en Linares: un Santana 109 Especial, un Santana 2500, un Santana 300 y, como bonus internacional, varios Santana Serie III y 88 Especial disponibles fuera de España. Modelos con historia y carácter que aún hoy llaman la atención en el mercado de ocasión. Curiosidades con Rubén Gómez: el papamóvil más inesperado Rubén Gómez trae una de sus historias más llamativas: el papamóvil construido sobre un Land Rover Santana 109. Una anécdota tan sorprendente como desconocida que demuestra la importancia internacional que llegaron a tener los productos de Linares. Sección TotalEnergies: el extraño matrimonio entre combustible y aceite Para cerrar, en la sección TotalEnergies con Carlos Belvis hablamos de la curiosa, y a veces problemática, relación entre el combustible y el aceite del motor. Un repaso técnico, práctico y lleno de conocimiento útil para cualquier conductor.

Adriana Kugler broke the central bank's rules regarding stock trading, according to a report released by the U.S. Government Ethics Office. - Now we know why she abruptly resigned a few months ago - That disclosure shows two kinds of violations of Fed rules regarding financial transactions by senior officials at the central bank: purchases of stocks of individual companies, as opposed to mutual funds; and purchases of securities during so-called “blackout periods” leading up to and after Federal Open Market Committee meetings. - Oh - Supposedly her husband did it - but come on! - Fed losing more credibility - this is not the first time....

This is a warning signal of trouble, but trouble does not always come. What is fair to say is that Hindenburg Omen signals have appeared at every major stock market top going back several decades. - According to Tom McClellan: The current count of 5 signals is not as big as some other clusters. But we got 4 signals in a cluster at the end of 2021, ahead of the 2022 bear market. So 4 is enough, if the market is inclined to live up to this warning. And 2 signals were enough back in December 2024 and March 2025 to tell us about the trouble in the market which unfolded in the April 2025 tariff reaction minicrash. But 5 is better.

This Day in Legal History: Statute of MarlboroughOn November 18, 1267, the Statute of Marlborough was enacted during the reign of King Henry III of England. It is the oldest piece of English statute law still partially in force, with four of its original twenty-nine chapters remaining on the books. The statute emerged from a period of intense baronial conflict and civil unrest, notably the Second Barons' War, and was part of a broader effort to restore royal authority and stabilize governance through legal reform. It reinforced the crown's prerogatives while addressing grievances raised by rebellious nobles, making it a compromise between royal and feudal powers.Among its most enduring provisions were regulations on the practice of “distress,” which referred to the seizure of property to compel debt repayment or enforce court judgments. The statute restricted unlawful and excessive distresses, requiring them to occur only with legal justification and in the appropriate jurisdiction. These reforms curtailed private self-help remedies and emphasized formal court processes, laying foundational principles for due process and the centralization of judicial authority. It also addressed issues like wardship, waste of land, and the obligations of tenants—key concerns in the feudal legal structure.The Statute of Marlborough built upon earlier reforms such as the Provisions of Oxford and Westminster, but had a more lasting legal impact. Its survival into modern times speaks to the durability of certain legal concepts, especially those reinforcing procedural fairness. Some of its language has been modernized, but the essence of its rules remains intact in English law. The statute reflects an early attempt to systematize and limit both public and private power through legal mechanisms. Legal historians often point to it as a stepping stone on the path to the English common law tradition.The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a case challenging the federal government's authority to limit asylum processing at official U.S.-Mexico border crossings under the now-rescinded “metering” policy. Originally implemented under President Trump and formalized in 2018, metering allowed border agents to stop asylum seekers before they crossed into the U.S. and decline to process their claims, even when they were physically present at ports of entry. The Biden administration repealed the policy in 2021, but Trump's return to office has revived interest in reestablishing it.At the core of the case is the legal meaning of the phrase “arrives in the United States,” with the Ninth Circuit ruling in 2024 that it includes people who reach official border entry points—even if still on the Mexican side. That ruling held that federal law requires asylum seekers at ports of entry to be inspected and allowed to apply, regardless of logistical constraints like capacity. The advocacy group Al Otro Lado, which brought the lawsuit in 2017, argues the metering policy illegally circumvented these obligations, leaving vulnerable migrants stranded in dangerous border conditions.Trump's Justice Department contends that “arrives in” means actual entry, not mere proximity—using analogies ranging from Normandy to football to make its point. The administration has also signaled that it intends to resume the policy if conditions warrant. The case, which will likely be decided by June, comes amid broader efforts to restrict asylum protections globally and may clarify the limits of executive power over humanitarian migration policy.Supreme Court to review US government power to limit asylum processing | ReutersA California judge has blocked a proposed class action lawsuit involving 6,000 Black workers at Tesla's Fremont factory who alleged systemic racial harassment, marking a significant legal win for the company. Judge Peter Borkon ruled that the case could not proceed as a class action because the plaintiffs' attorneys failed to secure testimony from at least 200 workers—raising doubts about whether the experiences of a smaller group could represent the broader workforce. This reverses a 2024 decision by another judge who had previously allowed the class to move forward.The original lawsuit, filed in 2017 by former worker Marcus Vaughn, alleged pervasive racism at the facility, including slurs, racist graffiti, and even nooses in work areas. Tesla has denied allowing harassment and said it takes disciplinary action against those who violate company policy. While this ruling narrows the scope of Vaughn's lawsuit, Tesla still faces other legal challenges, including a similar case from California's civil rights agency and a separate federal suit brought by the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. Tesla has previously settled other race discrimination lawsuits brought by individual employees.Tesla wins bid to undo race bias class action by Black factory workers | ReutersAshurst and Perkins Coie have agreed to merge, forming a global law firm with 3,000 lawyers and $2.7 billion in revenue—placing it among the world's top 20 legal outfits by size. The merger, expected to close in late 2026 pending partner approval, will create Ashurst Perkins Coie, with 52 offices across 23 countries. The move is part of a broader trend of transatlantic law firm consolidation aimed at scaling up to serve cross-border clients more effectively.Leadership will be shared between Ashurst's global CEO Paul Jenkins and Perkins Coie's managing partner Bill Malley, who emphasized the merger's value for clients in technology, financial services, and energy. Talks began in early 2025, with both firms framing the deal as a long-term strategic alignment. Perkins Coie recently gained attention for its role in successfully challenging executive orders from President Trump's administration targeting the firm and others tied to his political adversaries. While the firms say they have no current plans to expand their office footprint, the combination signals a deepening of U.K.-U.S. legal market integration.Law firms Ashurst, Perkins Coie agree merger to create global top-20 outfit | ReutersMy column for Bloomberg this week looks at OpenAI's effort to expand the CHIPS Act tax credit into a broad-based AI infrastructure subsidy—and what it reveals about the government's evolving role in underwriting the AI economy. OpenAI has asked the federal government to stretch the Advanced Manufacturing Investment Credit—originally designed to revive U.S. semiconductor manufacturing—to cover the entire AI stack, from servers to steel. That request arrives as data centers' energy consumption and land use start imposing real costs on local grids, budgets, and communities, raising the question: who's actually footing the bill for AI?I argue that this isn't a bailout so much as a bid for taxpayer-backed central planning, with a venture-capital gloss. AI infrastructure projects like OpenAI's Stargate centers already benefit from layers of state and local tax breaks, discounted electricity, and favorable land deals. Adding a 35% federal credit on top creates a subsidy stack that warps local priorities—school districts lose tax revenue, utilities are forced to reroute energy, and residents pay more on their bills. The public impact is mounting, even as the private benefit remains largely proprietary and insulated.Rather than offering blank checks, Congress should condition federal support on clear benefit-sharing requirements: job thresholds, emissions transparency, energy sourcing obligations, and clawbacks for missed targets. I propose a framework that makes federal aid contingent on upfront impact disclosures, co-investment in the grid, and full accounting of overlapping subsidies. Industrial policy isn't inherently bad—but without enforceable terms, we're not funding a public-private partnership. We're subsidizing a corporate buildout dressed up as a national security imperative. This is a public episode.

Los estallidos de Hiroshima y Nagasaki más que por razones militares estratégicas fueron impulsados por los intereses comerciales de las multinacionales del Complejo Militar Industrial norteamericano, en especial las armamentistas, que cuentan con un lobby militar permanente en la Casa Blanca. La carrera armamentista (nuclear, convencional y espacial), cuyo presupuesto hoy supera el billón de dólares, tuvo su punto de partida en Hiroshima y Nagasaki. Cómo se articuló y quienes son los que lucran con el "negocio nuclear". Los estallidos de Hiroshima y Nagasaki así lo demuestran las investigaciones independientes más que por razones militares estratégicas fueron impulsados por los intereses de las corporaciones del Complejo Militar Industrial norteamericano, en especial las armamentistas, que cuentan con un lobby militar permanente en la Casa Blanca. Las bombas de Hiroshima y Nagasaki no fueron arrojadas para "evitar más muertes" ni para precipitar la "rendición" del Japón: fueron lanzadas para iniciar la carrera armamentista (y consecuentemente el incremento sideral de la tasa de ganancias de las corporaciones del Complejo Militar Industrial que financiaron el proyecto de bombardeo), y lanzar un alerta amedrentador a la Unión Soviética, la otra potencia con capacidad nuclear. El genocidio aterrador de Hiroshima y Nagasaki le sirvió a los bancos y corporaciones (amparados por el Estado Nacional norteamericano) para instalar la carrera armamentista y la carrera espacial debajo de los acuerdos de "coexistencia pacífica" que mantenía al poder nuclear como efecto "disuasivo". El marco nuclear de la "coexistencia pacífica" (además de alimentar el negocio de las corporaciones aeroespaciales) sirvió de cáscara para desarrollar la confrontación por "áreas de influencia" entre EEUU y la URSS durante la Guerra Fría, mediante la cual la "industria de la guerra" (convencional y nuclear) facturó ganancias en armamento cuyo presupuesto mundial hoy supera el billón de dólares. En términos prácticos, y en números, la masacre nuclear de Hiroshima y Nagasaki sirvió a las trasnacionales y bancos para instalar la industria y la financiación del armamentismo (nuclear y convencional) tomado como "efecto disuasivo" para "evitar que sucedan" otras tragedias similares. La carrera armamentista (nuclear y convencional) alimenta los contratos y las ganancias de los consorcios agrupados en ese monstruo llamado Complejo Militar Industrial norteamericano. En su último informe Project on Government Oversight (POGO, Proyecto de Supervisión Gubernamental), un grupo con sede en Washington que vigila el gasto militar, señaló que, entre enero de 1997 y mayo de 2004, sólo 20 grandes proveedores recibieron más del 40 por ciento de los 244.000 millones de dólares en contratos del gobierno federal estadounidense. Entre los consorcios que se benefician en primer lugar de esta práctica se cuentan Lockheed Martin, la gigante aeroespacial Boeing, Northrop Grumman, contratista de la Fuerza Aérea, Raytheon, y General Dynamics. Boeing fabricó los bombarderos que transportaron las bombas de Hiroshima y Nagasaki, e integró el "lobby militar" que promovió e impulsó el proyecto compuesto entre otros por, Carnegie, Dupont, Westinghouse, Union Carbide, Tenesee Eastman, Kellogg, y Monsanto.

In recent commentary that sparked widespread backlash, Megyn Kelly questioned whether Jeffrey Epstein should be labeled a pedophile, suggesting that because he allegedly preferred girls around the ages of 15 or 16 rather than much younger children, the term might not technically apply. Her remarks attempted to draw a distinction between categories of sexual exploitation, focusing on definitional nuance rather than the underlying criminal reality that Epstein was convicted of sexually abusing minors and running an international trafficking operation that recruited vulnerable underage girls. Critics argue that this framing risks minimizing the gravity of Epstein's conduct and diverting attention from the extensive harm inflicted on victims.Kelly's comments prompted strong public condemnation, including responses from journalists and advocates who said that reducing foreign coercion and trafficking of minors to semantic debate undermines accountability and trivializes the severity of the crimes. Observers noted that the language echoed past attempts by Epstein's defenders to soften public perception and reframe him as merely inappropriate rather than predatory and violent.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-moscow-murders-and-more--5852883/support.

There is no bigger danger to Jews, apparently, than New York City's Mayor-Elect, Zohran Mamdani. The morning after he was elected, the ADL announced the launch of the “Mamdani Monitor” to track antisemitism within Zohran's administration. Debra Messing posted 91 Instagram stories in a single day about how she fears for her life as a Jew — not because of the rise of antisemitism within the MAGA movement or the mainstreaming of neo-nazi Nick Fuentes, but because of Zohran Mamdani, a man who is not antisemitic. This week, Matt Lieb (of Bad Hasbara) and Simone Zimmerman (of Israelism) help me navigate a literal industry — and ethnostate — propped up not only by fearmongering about antisemitism, but also by intentionally creating it.

Since the peak year of 2018, German steel production has fallen by around 25 percent. Germany's economic crisis is accelerating. Sky-high energy costs, relentless competition from China and India, and the EU's absurd push for “green steel”—a climate-neutral variant no one demands on the world market—are pushing companies either into insolvency or out of the country. Industrial electricity prices have hovered around 16–17 ct/kWh for months. German industry still pays up to 70 percent more than U.S. or French competitors, who benefit from nuclear power as their energy base. This is the cost of the green transition. Green Deal Fails The frequency of summits is telling. Germany's transition to a climate-neutral economy has already failed. Reality refuses to bend to Brussels' Green Deal diktat.

According to some reports, ground beef and steak prices are up nearly 50% since July 2020. Trump has launched an investigation into meatpacking companies for possible price fixing and manipulation.     these Corporations are not criminally profiting at the expense of the American People. I am asking the DOJ to act expeditiously. Thank you for your attention to this matter! Overview of Alleged Price Fixing in the Beef IndustryThe "Big Four" meatpacking companies—JBS, Tyson Foods, Cargill, and National Beef—control about 85% of U.S. beef processing. They have faced multiple antitrust lawsuits and Department of Justice (DOJ) investigations accusing them of colluding to suppress prices paid to ranchers for live cattle while artificially inflating wholesale and retail beef prices. This creates a wide "meat margin" profit for packers at the expense of producers and consumers.

John Chang breaks down the Urban Land Institute and PwC 2026 Emerging Trends report and what it means for commercial real estate investors. He walks through ULI's top ten markets to watch, including Dallas, Miami, Houston, Northern New Jersey, Tampa, and Phoenix, highlighting where overdevelopment, insurance costs, and local policy risks could pressure performance versus where solid job and demographic trends still support growth. John also explores why he favors sectors like seniors housing, medical office, workforce apartments, necessity-based neighborhood retail, and small bay industrial over buzzy data centers, especially given AI's long runway and the heavy power demands of server facilities. He wraps up by explaining why today's combination of compressed lending spreads, elevated cap rates, and a coming construction slowdown could set investors up for strong risk-adjusted returns over the next three to five years if they position carefully now.
