Germany’s real estate market continues to evolve, with prices
rising more slowly due to high interest rates and a stagnant
construction sector. Urban demand remains strong, especially in
major cities like Berlin and Hamburg, while some rural areas face
surprising price drops.

The start-up ecosystem in Germany has shrunk, with fewer “unicorns”
than in previous years. However, analysts are hopeful for a rebound
in 2025, as innovation drives the tech sector forward.

Across the Atlantic, U.S. stock markets show potential for gains
but come with warnings of increased volatility. Meanwhile, monetary
policy adjustments by the ECB and the Fed have helped stabilize
inflation, bringing it closer to target levels.

On the flip side, risky real estate financing has hit institutional
investors hard. The Pharmacists' Pension Fund in Schleswig-Holstein
reported heavy losses in 2023, a stark warning about the dangers of
speculative investments.

That's today's business update. Thanks for tuning in to Business
