2) However, industrial demand is expected to soften over the next few quarters in line with slowing global growth and a faltering manufacturing sector.
3) The tight supply of Class A industrial space continues to drive down availability rates and put upward pressure on lease rates, fueling new construction activity across major industrial markets.

The U.S. economy and industrial sector have begun to feel the brunt of the slowdown in global growth, which originated in
Europe but has now spread to Latin America and Asia. U.S. trade, which is the sum of imports and exports, slowed during the
second quarter and is expected to actually decline in the third quarter.
