“Since dropping below 8,000 cases in late June, the 7-day moving average of new Covid-19 cases have skyrocketed by over 1,300% to over 113,000, a level not seen since early February. Despite the surge in new cases, the Delta variant is not having as big an impact on deaths, with the moving average rising 150% to 450 since bottoming out in early July. However, the rise in cases is already having an impact on policy makers. Since the CDC changed its guidelines over masks two weeks ago, new mask mandates have swept the nation, including industrial real estate’s fastest-growing market, Dallas, Texas (KERA News). Just as retail shopping has recovered, the Delta variant threatens a return to shutdowns, forcing many in-person transactions back online. While this would be devastating for the overall economy again, this new threat provides more support to historic valuations seen in industrial real estate this year.” -Adam Abushagur
