This week on Shop Talk we break down the markets, REIT performance, and the latest noise around Jerome Powell and interest rates. The term of the week is “Flywheel”—a self-reinforcing loop that builds momentum and drives growth. We dive into how investors are using flywheels in real estate strategy and where it shows up in today’s market. Of course, we mix in college football hot takes, a wild Kansas State family brawl, high school football matchups, and some betting picks for the weekend.
