Why would anything have changed? Layoffs everywhere, rates static, IPO market dead, no deals being done…
The fuck are you taking about? The ECM market is red hot, mega deal announcements are up heavy (of course last year low water mark), on the brink of cutting cycle in coming months… come on
Ok buddy, I bet you think Powell will lower rates 3 times this year too… just like last year
Shit isn't going to change until ~Q3 2025. And yes, it's still fucking terrible out there.
Check warntracker if you're curious - Layoffs aren't over.
How's hiring in RX going?
Does that mean there could be FT recruiting at some of the BBs for c/o 2025? Please jpow please cut rates
Not great. While pitching activity and deal flow is picking up, most banks are still overstaffed compared to deal activity. I think we'd need to see a solid 12 months of strong deal flow before hiring picks up again. No one wants to make the same mistake made during 2020-2022
