A Figure Without a Source: On the Evidentiary Basis for Luxury Hotel Feasibility - By Dr. Tong Yin
[]
Hotel News Resource
The report does not, however, decompose how much of the change in the millionaire headcount is attributable to currency movement.
The figure is accurate, the stock converts cleanly into a flow, and global luxury accommodation demand is genuinely growing.
A distinction between industry demand and firm demand — growth in the former is not evidence of the latter.
The recommendation I would offer is therefore a measured one: in luxury hotel development decisions, return macro wealth data to its proper role.
