I met with a large multigenerational family office last week. I asked them what their investment philosophy was and they responded with the following:
1. Buy well
2. Add value
3. Sell to an idiot
Adding that to my list of life’s principles….

This startup brought Starlink to the US Open to give free WiFi to the entire place.
They just plugged it in and now everyone sees their branding.
Genius.
Almost time…finishing touches on our new experiential events venue The Mallory opening at Terminal Warehouse this fall. Team CHG making moves!
Agreed @kylematthewsceo
Even better if you can brand them and add a true level of hospitality and experience to them.

Multifamily credit spreads have blown out by 25-40 bps the last 2 weeks. Interesting to see what impact that has on transaction activity the next few quarters.
Starting to see the flight to local play out in the meeting & event industry as organizations look to cut back on travel costs. Most expensive part of a meeting or event is airfare and accommodations.
The bond markets spoke and the President had no choice but to listen. Regardless, volatility is here to stay and will undoubtedly have an impact on growth the next few years while business leaders wait to see the impact of the new economic world order.
How is it possible you can declare economic war without the legislative branch of government? Article I of the Constitution being tested.
The world of investment management is changing. Fee & margin compression driving increased consolidation and a massive shift towards outsourcing. Not just back office functions but now sourcing, underwriting & asset management.
