As 2026 begins amid economic uncertainty and shifting policy signals, Peachtree Group CEO Greg Friedman sits down with Mark Zandi, Chief Economist at Moody's Analytics, to break down what investors should expect in the year ahead. The conversation explores the resilience of the U.S. economy, the role of artificial intelligence in driving growth and why several sectors, including commercial real estate, have already endured a prolonged correction.
Zandi shares his outlook on interest rates, explaining why short-term cuts may come while long-term Treasury yields remain elevated. He also addresses affordability pressures, the diverging recovery across income levels and asset classes, and the geopolitical risks that could disrupt markets. For commercial real estate investors, lenders and operators navigating capital decisions in today's environment, this episode delivers clear, grounded insight on risk, valuation and opportunity.
