A properly maintained & operational standpipe system is a critical life safety feature in a highrise building.
Crews perform regular training to locate connections, manage water pressures, stretch hose lines, and adapt when conditions change, or systems don’t perform as expected.
Real (inflation-adjusted) consumer spending was up just 0.1% in January. Durable goods orders were flat, and real GDP was revised down to just 0.7% annualized growth in Q4 (remember when people were saying it would be over 5%?).
The stock market has been flat since September.
We already knew lower income, lower asset holding households were spending less, what if the “wealth effect spending” peters out, too.
That’s my worry…job growth has been slow…COVID stimulus has worn out…and now asset values are in trouble.
Investors need to be very, very cautious these days.
