Young first-time US home buyer has evaporated with high interest rates, mortgage payments brutal. Record amount of institutional cash buyers in home market. Biden's big problems with youth vote, not only GAZA, but rather their crazy high rent and rent inflation.
US commercial office market also disaster with huge amounts of re-financing needed. Hard for US to have sound economy with above real estate problems, due to high interest rates banks require given elevated inflation.
US financial markets very sensitive to above real estate issues stemming from high rates and inflation.
