It looks like the penny may have finally met its match. President Donald Trump took to Truth Social last month to announce his <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/25/02/43756267/trumps-plan-to-ditch-pennies-pros-cons-for-businesses-and-customers">plan to halt the production of pennies</a>, calling the coin a waste of taxpayer money.
"For far too long the United States has minted pennies which literally cost us more than 2 cents," Trump wrote. "This is so wasteful! I have instructed my Secretary of the US Treasury to stop producing new pennies. Let's rip the waste out of our great nation's budget, even if it's a penny at a time."

</ul>
His move sparked an immediate reaction, with "Shark Tank" <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/25/03/44346635/kevin-o-leary-says-elon-musk-will-walk-away-mid-conversation-if-he-gets-bored-he-doesnt-give-a-sht-ive-never-met-anybody-like-him">investor Kevin O'Leary</a> jumping in to support the decision. O'Leary told <a href="https://www.foxbusiness.com/media/trump-right-order-us-ditch-stupid-penny-kevin-oleary-says">Fox Business</a>, "[Trump] is right — it's stupid. Why would you pay two cents for a commodity that's worth one? Who uses a penny anyways? Unless you're putting them in your loafers, and nobody does that anymore, get rid of it. It's useless."
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The High Cost of the Penny</h2>
The math backs up their argument. According to the <a href="https://www.usmint.gov/content/dam/usmint/reports/2024-annual-report.pdf?srsltid=AfmBOorBMrUrXpJ5reVFkZhqGE5I6TKStAYpL56fd2n4Zs53emNlwY5k">U.S. Mint</a>, the agency responsible for producing American coinage, each penny cost 3.69 cents to produce in fiscal 2024—more than three times its face value. The Mint ended up losing $85.3 million just on penny production that year.
But the penny isn't the only coin losing money. The Mint also revealed that it cost 13.78 cents to make a nickel, and quarters cost 14.68 cents each to produce. With numbers like these, O'Leary's take on the situation seems to align with pure business logic.
Trending: BlackRock is calling 2025 the year of alternative assets. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/masterworks">One firm from NYC has quietly built a group of 60,000+ investors who have all joined in on an alt asset class previously exclusive to billionaires like Bezos and Gates.</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Pennies, Loafers, and the Fall of Small Change</h2>
O'Leary added some humor to the debate, referencing the once-popular tradition of tucking pennies into penny loafers—a fashion statement that has long since faded. And it's not just style that has moved on; the purchasing power of the penny has drastically declined.
Once upon a time, you could buy gum or a piece of penny candy with a single cent. Today? A penny barely buys anything, and many vending machines, parking meters, and businesses no longer accept them. Even cash transactions have become less frequent as digital payments dominate everyday purchases.
The argument for eliminating the penny has been around for decades, but past efforts have stalled due to public sentiment and pushback from groups like <a href="https://pennies.org/category/americans-for-common-cents-press-releases/">Americans for Common Cents</a>. Critics argue that scrapping the penny could lead to price rounding that hurts consumers or that eliminating the coin wouldn't actually save much money, since the Mint's operational costs would remain.
However, other countries have already ditched their lowest-value coins with minimal issues. Canada eliminated the penny in 2012, and the U.S. military stopped using pennies at overseas bases years ago.

If They Could Show A Plan For Ending World Hunger He'd Donate $6 Billion – ‘I Will Sell Tesla Stock Right Now And Do It'</a>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Enter Elon Musk and the "Department of Government Efficiency"</h2>
The Department of Government Efficiency, led by Elon Musk, <a href="https://x.com/doge/status/1881928086305870127">posted on X</a> that the penny is a prime example of wasteful spending. The agency suggested that eliminating it could be one of the first steps in cutting unnecessary government costs.
Despite the growing support for killing the penny, not everyone is on board. <a href="https://wisevoter.com/issue/why-should-we-keep-the-penny/">According to WiseVoter</a>, a 2024 YouGov poll found that 51% of Americans still want to keep it, showing that nostalgia and resistance to change still play a role in the debate.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Final Cent?</h2>
With Trump's directive now in motion and public figures like Kevin O'Leary and Elon Musk backing the idea, it looks like the penny could be on its way out. But whether it actually disappears depends on Congress, the Treasury Department, and how much pushback the decision receives.
For now, the debate rages on. But if Trump and O'Leary have their way, the penny's days are numbered—unless, of course, you're still keeping one in your loafers.

Office buildings are one oof the most unloved asset classes on the planet right now
Wall Street hates them.
The financial media hates them even more.
Your average employee hates the very idea that office buildings existed in the first place
Investors are convinced that it is not too terribly long before a trip to New York will involve meeting up with Kurt Russell wearing an eye patch in a post -office real estate apocalypse world.
No one wants to go to work anymore.
The pandemic changed the office market forever and anyone who can work from&nbsp; home will do so.
While all that is true, investors are overlooking the fact that increasingly employers want their employees back to in the office.
The government, the banks, private equity and high-tech companies have all sounded recall.
They want their people back.
Corporations are also taking advantage of the opportunity to downsize and upgrade their office space, and this is creating demand for&nbsp; one segment of the office market that could deliver huge profits for patient aggressive&nbsp; investors
The demand for Class A office space in major U.S. cities has continued to rise, despite ongoing challenges in the broader commercial real estate market. This trend reflects a growing preference for high-quality, well-located office properties as companies seek to enhance employee experience and align real estate decisions with corporate objectives.
According to CBRE, base and net effective rents for Class A+/A office buildings have increased by 3.1% and 5.2%, respectively, since 2023. This rent growth contrasts sharply with the performance of lower-tier properties, where rents have declined as landlords struggle to attract tenants. The strong demand for Class A space has allowed landlords to reduce concessions, including tenant improvement allowances and free rent, which were more prevalent in previous years.
A key driver behind the increased demand for Class A office space is the &#8220;flight-to-quality&#8221; trend. Many corporate occupiers are prioritizing office environments that offer premium amenities, advanced technology, and sustainable features. Employees returning to offices in hybrid or full-time capacities are seeking higher-quality workspaces, prompting firms to lease properties that promote collaboration and well-being.
In New York, office leasing activity has seen a resurgence, particularly in premium office towers. As workers return to offices, demand for prime locations has intensified, leading to a more competitive market for Class A spaces. Similarly, other major cities, including San Francisco and Chicago, are witnessing a bifurcation in office leasing trends, where well-positioned, high-quality buildings continue to attract tenants, while older and less-equipped buildings struggle with rising vacancies.
While Class A office buildings continue to perform well, the outlook for Class B and C properties is less favorable. CBRE's analysis indicates that rents for these properties have declined by 5.7% and 1.2%, respectively, as tenants seek to upgrade their office spaces. In many cases, landlords of lower-tier properties have been forced to lower rents or repurpose office buildings for alternative uses, such as residential conversions.
The office real estate investment trust (REIT) sector is dominated by a few large players that own and manage extensive portfolios of Class A office buildings.
<ul>
<li>Boston Properties (Ticker: BXP) is the largest publicly traded office REIT, with a focus on high-quality office properties in major urban markets, including Boston, New York, San Francisco, and Washington, D.C. The company's portfolio consists of premier office towers and mixed-use developments that cater to top-tier tenants in finance, technology, and professional services. Boston Properties pays an annual dividend of $3.92 per share, resulting in a dividend yield of 5.68%. </li>
<li>Kilroy Realty (Ticker: KRC) specializes in Class A office properties along the West Coast, with a significant presence in markets like Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, and San Diego. The REIT is known for its commitment to sustainability and innovation, owning state-of-the-art office buildings that appeal to leading technology and life sciences companies. Kilroy Realty currently offers a dividend yield of approximately 5.58%. </li>
<li>Alexandria Real Estate Equities (Ticker: ARE) focuses on life sciences office space, particularly in research and innovation hubs like Boston, San Francisco, and San Diego. Its portfolio consists of high-end laboratory and office facilities leased to biotech and pharmaceutical companies, positioning the REIT as a leader in the life sciences real estate sector. Alexandria Real Estate Equities declared a quarterly dividend of $1.32 per share, totaling $5.28 annually, which translates to a dividend yield of approximately 5.17%.</li>
</ul>
Conclusion The demand for Class A office space in major U.S. cities remains strong as companies continue to prioritize quality, location, and employee experience. While the broader office market faces structural challenges, particularly for lower-tier properties, well-located, amenity-rich office buildings are outperforming. This trend underscores the ongoing transformation of the office sector, where premium spaces are becoming a critical differentiator for companies looking to attract and retain top talent.
The largest publicly traded office REITs, including Boston Properties, Kilroy Realty, and Alexandria Real Estate Equities, continue to dominate the market by focusing on high-end office properties that align with evolving tenant preferences while offering solid dividend yields to investors.

<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Comparing Ares Management's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Ares Management's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 3.30%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>
