Which is why the statements are not a farce. You made that up to cover the fact you made false claims about the commercial property market.
You say that.
The statements say nothing about the economy in term of other entities.
Simon makes money from rent, not from the success of the renters.
They go about a month between vendors for each store that is left vacant; that hardly reflects on the impact of the 120 businesses and the people affected by success or failure.
Your inability or unwillingness to understand this, displays your emotional investment in your particular view of the economy.
But I do know a few people who think like you do and I have worked with many on Wall Street who only think this way.
There is validity to your point of view if that is how you make money or invest.
You call their financial statement a farce because it lacks some information.
Then you make claims and never, ever, have even one tiny piece of information other than “because I said so”. Does that not make you an even bigger farce?
I do not have an unwillingness to understand, I have an unwillingness to blindly accept what you say as fact. I have this for two reasons.
One, because you never support your claims. I am a data wonk, I do not take things on blind faith, do not accept what people tell me with some support for their claims.
Two, because every single bit of data I have found is 100% the opposite of what you say is the case.
So, I am stuck between believing the data or someone that has no data...which way do you think I will go 100% of the time?
