Macroeconomics III: B2B Capex, Inventories and Investment Considerations 

Available on-demand

A slowing macro economy will likely be a headwind for investment, affecting everything from capacity planning to capital expenditures and inventory levels. The pandemic-era swings in both supply and demand are likely to calm, but persistent uncertainties – the war in Ukraine, mid-term elections and the Fed’s interest rate policy – all cloud the decision-making process. What does it all mean to the distribution community? 

In this episode of The Discerning Distributor, Alex Chausovsky and his guest delve deep into these critical topics. They discussed the current Capex and inventory landscape, explore what is likely to occur down the road and provide some sage advice to distributors looking for clarity on what’s to come.  

Watch on-demand – and walk away with new insights and ideas to help you deal with the uncertainty.
