Associated Subcontractors of Mass. rolls out the red carpet at General Contractor Showcase

Framingham, MA At Associated Subcontractors of Mass. (ASM), we know subcontractors look for opportunities to meet new customers, and reconnect with ones they’ve worked with in the past.   With that in mind, we recently held our 5th bi-annual  General Contractor Showcase that brought  together 25 of the area’s leading general contractor and construction manager firms,  for a classic “meet and greet” with subcontractors.     

Held at the centrally-located Sheraton Framingham, the event drew over 300 trade contractors and industry partners from across the state. With the construction industry humming right now, there was palpable excitement in the air at the potential for new business relationships.

No one knows what the construction environment will be like in the fall of 2018 when ASM holds its next Showcase event, but between now and then we’ll look for other ways to continue the interaction and collaboration between ASM members and the region’s top-tier general contractors.

Investing in a falling rate environment - by Harrison Klein

Long-term interest rates have fallen by 100 basis points, and the market is normalizing. In December of 2022 I wrote an article about investing in a high interest rate, high inflation market. Since then, inflation has cooled off, and the Fed has begun lowering their funds rate.
