US Consumer - Regional Boutique

Think it’s fair to say that there is a general slowdown in M&A transactions given the current consumer cycle; various industries are experiencing contractions in multiples. Couple this with a slowdown in consumer spending driven by the national credit crunch, the headwinds in CRE, and a newly found disciplinary approach to investing (where previously agnostic and lazy).

 

I interviewed for a regional boutique in Canada.
After the interview was over - both behavioral and detailed technical, they said, "we have very low deal flow right now and are not opening up any positions right now. Will let you know once it improves."
Lol.
