Analyst Commentary
Market analysts believe the rebound is a positive sign for the property sector. “The recent correction presented a good buying opportunity,” said John Lee, a senior analyst at ABC Securities. “We expect continued growth in the sector, driven by strong demand and limited supply.”
However, some analysts caution that the market may still face challenges, including potential interest rate hikes and global economic uncertainties. Investors are advised to exercise caution and conduct thorough due diligence.
