INDUSTRIAL rents and prices in Q2 rose over the quarter for the third straight quarterly season, reflecting the economic recovery seen in the manufacturing sector, data released by JTC on Thursday showed.
Analysts see a global chip shortage and more in-bound biotech investments creating more demand ahead, though this is tempered by the rise in supply, with total available stock seeing its largest quarterly rise since 2017.
