The Oakland Office Market is Up, or is it Down?

Not sure of the dicotimy but the SF Business Times headlins 1/16/26 read “Signs of Promise for Oakland’s Office Market” and the subheading rea “Vacancy Rises but Net Absorption Drops in Optimistic Signal”…Where I grew up when the vacancy rate rises and net absorption drops, this is the opposite of any positive signs…then in today’s theregistrysf, “Deutsche Bank Takes Control of Three Oakland Office Towers in 975,000 SQFT Deal”  so however you spin in, hopefully opptimism is somewhere I the future but it sure ain’t here now….
