Happy Monday, Zingers! The market isn’t the only thing hitting all-time highs.

LeBron James and Caitlin Clark both set new scoring milestones for their respective leagues. LeBron notched his 40,000th point last week, the most in NBA history, while Clark set the all-time NCAA scoring record, passing Pistol Pete Maravich. Oddly enough, LeBron scored his first 10,000 points in the same exact number of games as his last 10,000 points: 368.

Much like the market, King James may be getting up there, but he’s still not showing many signs of slowing down.

Downgrades Flood In For Commercial Real Estate Stocks: Analysts Warn Of 'Rocky Road Ahead'

Briefly: Looking to pay off your mortgage? Real estate might not be the answer.

So Basically: Bank of America downgraded six players in the Commercial Real Estate (CRE) mortgage REIT sector, citing interest rate headwinds and weakening fundamentals that spell a “rocky road ahead” for the industry.

So Then: BoA analyst Eric Dray conveyed in a note to clients today that the sector might see a downward trend in book values and sustained tepid investor sentiment over the coming quarters.

So What? “The office sector has faced headwinds from slow return-to-office in the U.S.,” according to BoA, evinced by a minimal effective rent growth of just 0.5% year-over-year in the fourth quarter of 2023, coupled with a climb in vacancy rates to 19.6%.

What Next: This is the latest omen for a sector that’s been struggling since the pandemic-era rise of remote work. With roughly $1 trillion in commercial real estate loans set to mature in the next couple years, the worst may be yet to come.
