About this episode
In this week’s episode of The TreppWire Podcast, we examine rising Middle East tensions following US-Israeli strikes on Iran, including Iranian drone damage to Amazon data centers in the Gulf, and the ripple effects on oil prices and the 10-year Treasury. We cover the reversal of the 10-year Treasury back above 4%, rising oil prices, and record redemption requests at Blackstone's private credit fund. We review Trepp's February CMBS delinquency data, take a deep dive into the surging CRE CLO market, and break down $7.6 billion in SASB AAA downgrades. We close with a trading alert on the Minneapolis City Center loan and Target's surprise lease buyout.
