Airlines will do the same at your seat.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>AI in Talent Tech<\/strong>: Employers have had &#8220;robots&#8221; screening out viable candidates for years; job seekers are now armed with the same tech to beat the robots. Humans will have to make hiring decisions again and this is a good thing.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The mid-budget movie is gone ($20m &#8211; $70m)<\/strong>: The death cycle of mid-budget movies will complete this year, we will be left with blockbuster attempts, arthouse films, and streaming trash.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Professional Sports will surge in value<\/strong>: As we continue to connect globally the TAM of regional sports will expand to the globe. Once niche sports will gain huge value (Cycling, Volleyball, Women&#8217;s Sports). Legacy team sports will see massive gains in values of teams.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Comeback of the hybrid car<\/strong>: I think Toyota got this one right, an all-electric future is much farther away then we thought, especially in the United States. Mercedes will back pedal on their all-electric goal of 2030.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Real estate will balance<\/strong>: The traditionally high priced metro areas will maintain price while the up and coming cities will continue to increase. Younger people are moving back to the city and they&#8217;re renting, not buying. Older people are looking for that &#8220;last house I ever buy&#8221; and some space so they will be looking to move away from the bigger metro areas and paying cash.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Its been a while since I did annual predictions so here goes nothing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2411,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"neve_meta_sidebar":"","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"","neve_meta_content_width":0,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"","neve_meta_disable_title":"","neve_meta_reading_time":"","_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[43,13],"tags":[51],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2410"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2410"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2410\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2411"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2410"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2410"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.vincemarotte.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2410"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
