Overview

Body
We are seeing valuations remain at unprecedented levels.  But that does not mean every business is being valued as highly as it was a year ago. Some industries – auto parts, building products – have started to flag based on concerns about the economic cycle or trade policy.  Others – health & wellness, direct-to-consumer – continue to find room to surge. What are the differentiators between the two groups?  It isn’t just industry, but often sub-categories within industries getting different receptions from buyers and lenders.
