U.S. equity markets climbed to fresh record highs this past week after relatively benign inflation data and weak employment data cleared the path for the Fed to resume rate cuts. While CPI and PPI readings continued to show a modest reacceleration in price pressures from their post-pandemic lows earlier this year, both remained "cool enough" to permit a policy pivot. The Fed is widely expected to cut reference rates by 25 basis points to a 4.25% upper bound, which follows a nine-month "pause" since the last reduction last December.

HIW boosts its portfolio by acquiring Legacy Union Parking Garage at 720 South Church Street in Uptown Charlotte.

RALEIGH, N.C., Aug. 12, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Highwoods Properties, Inc. (NYSE:HIW) has executed a recast of a $200 million unsecured bank term loan by extending the maturity date from May 2026 to January 2029.

Highwoods Properties' Sunbelt office focus faces headwinds as occupancy rates decline and core markets like Raleigh and Atlanta see rising vacancies. Despite a 7% dividend yield and strong near-term coverage, falling occupancy, FFO, and free cash flow raise concerns for long-term investors. Debt maturities are manageable through 2025, but refinancing risk grows in 2027-2028 amid higher rates and possible continued occupancy losses.
