I never heard of Simon's before.

I do expect some U.S. surprises over the next 2-3 months, translating unexpected bankruptcies because the flummoxing of cash flow caused by this wacko tariff war that Trump started will hit any consumer company with marginal cash flow problems hard. Suddenly, the money is not coming in but the bills for rent, utilities, salaries, suppliers, maintenance continue apace.
