Cap Rates Continue Their Trend Downward in Q2 Summary | By Gregory Hartmann
 As the next installment to my March 2009 article published in Hotel News Now, I thought it best to literally pick up where I left off on that date. In the last paragraph of that article I concluded that because Strategic Hotel Capital (BEE on NYSE) has a cap rate below 10%, over 200 basis points below the next lowest, its share price may still have potential for further declines. At that time, cap rates ranged from 9.6% (for BEE) to 15.4% (for Host) and averaged 12.8% for all seven REITS based on their March 2, 2009 share prices and 2008 year-end statistics. My final sentence read, "So whether you are lowering your income on a TTM basis or forecasting 2009, you can safely anticipate most of those cap rates to trend downward through 2010."

Wednesday 25 August 2010 | Eighteen months of global recession can feel like a painfully long time when each day’s results make for depressing reading and the longed for upturn is still out of reach. Eighteen months of global recession can however fly by when there are new efficiencies to create and implement, restructurings to execute, and fresh strategies to deliver.
