Property market Q2 outlook / AI marathon / Tunnel robot
2025-04-11
On Friday’s Backchat, we looked into the latest developments in Hong Kong's real estate market.
The second quarter of this year presents a mix of opportunities and challenges, with anticipated declines in Grade A office rents, a surge in hotel transactions, and increasing demand for education-related properties.
Investors are also seeking clarity on potential US interest rate cuts and what the medium-term impact would be — as they navigate an increasingly unpredictable market landscape.
Could potential rate cuts stimulate investments? And what does that tell us about the property market outlook?
After 9:45, we shifted our focus to artificial intelligence and found out more about the world's first half-marathon which will feature both humans and robots.
At 9:55, we also learned about an a highly-sophisticated tunnel inspector developed in Hong Kong, that has won Gold at the 2025 Edison Awards, better known as the "Oscars of Innovation".
