Brax Research

Chart of the Week

One chart, one finding, every Thursday. We take the numbers Panama actually records — Registro Público closings, INEC, the Canal, the banks — put them next to how McKinsey, CBRE and the IMF frame global markets, and publish what they say, including when it contradicts the pitch.

No. 1 · Sep 25, 2026

The asking-price mirage

Sellers ask 7% to 26% more per m² than buyers pay — and the gap is widest where inventory piles up.

No. 2 · Oct 1, 2026

Coming Thursday

Is Panama’s construction recovery private-led? Cement, permits and what they say about 2027 deliveries.

How we build every chart.
