Occupancy was downgraded barely (by 0.2ppts).

Our newest projections replicate the continued buoyancy of vacationers, as room charges outperformed our earlier forecast, which in-built a light recession,

Decelerating elements, together with greater rates of interest, extra restrictive lending, tighter fiscal coverage, and weakened family funds will lead customers to rein in spending and companies to chop again on hiring and funding, doubtless inflicting the financial system to skirt with recession,
