sunday thoughts
you can get the impression reading about financial crises that preceding events move very quickly and hindsight is 20/20.
but that’s not quite right.

today, everyone knows the commercial mortgage market is in trouble.
many of the assumptions of the last decade have been totally upended.
do we properly understand the systemic risk?
are we looking through the short term ebb and flow of the market and properly assessing the long term trends?
