NEW YORK (Reuters) -Archegos Capital Management founder Sung Kook "Bill" Hwang and a deputy "made fraud their business," a federal prosecutor told a Manhattan jury on Monday at their criminal trial over the 2021 collapse of the $36 billion private investment fund. The trial, which began in March in Manhattan federal court, centers around the implosion of Hwang's family office Archegos.

China's central bank said on Monday it would start conducting temporary bond repurchase agreements or reverse repos to make open market operations more efficient and keep banking system liquidity ample. Market participants and analysts believe the move paves the way for a new interest rate corridor, with the seven-day reverse repo rate serving as a central guide, giving the bank more leeway to manage cash conditions and interest rates amid hot demand for bonds. That also comes after the central bank's governor said the seven-day rate "basically fulfils the function" as the main policy rate.

Marcus & Millichap (MMI) CEO Hessam Nadji joins Catalysts to give insight into bank loans, the commercial real estate (CRE) market, and what real estate investors need to keep in mind. Nadji comments on CRE investing at a time when experts worry a crisis could be looming for the sector: "As a lot of people went on the sideline, the astute investor was in the market making offers, maybe not executing transactions, but being in the front end of where the prices would adjust to the point where they made sense. If you look at multi-family [housing], for example, we've seen 20 to 25% price correction in most cases." He continues: "So when you see a good asset in a market, you want to be in as an investor at those price points, you almost don't care about the interest rate. You almost don't care about the fact that the loan that you would take on would be at a much higher interest rate today than two and a half years ago, because interest rates will come in at some point."

"I would rather hold rates until there is more certainty that underlying inflationary pressures have subsided sustainably."
