How in your experience the EBITDA multiple impacted so far (e.g. came down from 3-5x to 2-4x). Last year's EBITDA and last 3 year average may not be that relevant anymore depending on industry.
I would expect there to be way more sellers than buyers in the market. Are you seeing that?
US Government has artificially tried to keep companies/markets alive, interest rates are a record low, its election year and most economists feel anxious and expect a great depression type economic collapse. What would be a "fair" multiple to pay for Business Services (B2B) sector given above risks.
