On the same day that the CPI showed yearly inflation ticking down to 3.3%, with zero price growth last month, the Federal Reserve released its updated economic projections along with commentary that raised the possibility of an interest rate cut this year, but there was little definitive indication on when that might take place. While CRE markets are showing more signs of adjustment to "higher for longer" rates, the improved inflation numbers and potential for lower rates are meaningful developments for the CRE lending market that is continuing to feel pressure from the persistent high-rate environment.
