With a record $350 billion in dry powder waiting on the sidelines, investors are facing increasing pressure to deploy capital. Yet, about two-thirds of capital recently raised has not yet been deployed. Aaron Jodka , director of research for US Capital Markets at Colliers, said that the trend has started to change this year. Investors are getting increasingly comfortable with the market conditions — namely higher-for-longer interest rates — and investment activity started to slowly improve in the second quarter. In this podcast interview, Jodka gives a deep analysis of the investment landscape, including: - Investors that are actively buying, and the ones still waiting - What needs to happen to help fuel more investment activity - Why he is optimistic that investment volumes will gain momentum next year ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/globest-perspectives-podcast-833674/episodes/who-s-buying-who-s-waiting-and-what-s-next/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/globest-perspectives-podcast-833674/who-s-buying-who-s-waiting-and-what-s-next.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
