Markets may have cheered a court ruling limiting presidential tariff power—but don’t mistake it for clarity. The LightBox team—Martha Coacher, Manus Clancy, and Dianne Crocker—unpacks what’s really moving CRE: supply chain strains, shaky retail guidance, and tariff whiplash. Retailers are pulling forecasts, investors are fatigued, and Manus warns we’ve moved “from panic to complacency” way too fast. Still, CRE activity remains resilient. LightBox data shows strong listing volumes and investor interest, with more than 130 NDAs per deal on average. Plus: a rare $865M hotel deal, a bullish $535M multifamily buy in Atlanta, and a surge in law firm office leasing. The team also dives into the latest twists in New York’s rent stabilization saga—and whether bathing suits might be the new eggs.
