US commercial real estate prices prices are down sharply this year with offices building prices down ~30%
On top of declining prices, there are nearly $1.4 TRILLION of commercial real estate loans coming due by 2025. Meanwhile, rates on the commercial real estate loans have more than doubled since they were issued. Last but not least, vacancies in commercial real estate are skyrocketing (which means rent revenue is down). The coktail of rising rates on loans that need to be refinanced and declining income looks like a rather toxic one. Source: The Kobeisi Letter

BREAKING; Elon Musk’s X (Twitter) obtains license for Bitcoin and €crypto services to store, transfer, and exchange digital assets on behalf of its users
Elon Musk has decided to make X (formerly Twitter) an “everything app” with multiple functionalities, including a payment hub processor integrated with the microblogging social network and other tools from the building ecosystem. Musk already stated that X is a “DOGE-friendly place”. Part of the work of becoming a payment hub, or a cryptocurrency-friendly place, in the United States lies in obtaining the required licenses to operate such a business legally. Elon Musk’s company has been gradually doing that in different states but mostly focused on fiat payments under the “Money Transmitter License.” In particular, this license will enable X to store, transfer, and exchange digital assets on behalf of its users.
