Innovative Industrial Properties, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/IIPR#NYSE">IIPR</a>) shares are trading lower after the company disclosed that PharmaCann Inc. defaulted on rent payments<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/b42481108/innovative-industrial-properties-declares-fourth-quarter-2024-dividends" rel="noreferrer noopener"> for several of its leased properties</a>.
On December 19, PharmaCann defaulted on its obligations to pay rent for the month of December under six of eleven leases, representing properties in Illinois, Massachusetts, Michigan, New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.
The total rent, including base rent, property management fees, and estimated tax and insurance payments, amounted to $4.2 million for these six properties. In response, IIP applied the security deposits held under these leases to cover the outstanding rent, along with late penalties and interest.
Despite PharmaCann paying rent in full under the remaining five leases, it also defaulted on those due to cross-default provisions in the leases.
PharmaCann and its affiliates, tenants for eleven properties that IIP owns, represented&nbsp;17%&nbsp;of IIP&#8217;s total rental revenues for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024.

As a result, Innovative Industrial Properties said it is pursuing discussions with PharmaCann and intends to enforce its rights under the leases, which could include eviction proceedings if deemed necessary.
Earlier this month, Innovative Industrial Properties announced a fourth-quarter 2024 dividend of $1.90 per common share, representing <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/b42481108/innovative-industrial-properties-declares-fourth-quarter-2024-dividends" rel="noreferrer noopener">an annualized dividend of $7.60 per share.</a>
Additionally, the company declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.5625 per share of its 9.00% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Preferred Stock, both of which are payable on January 15.
Price Action: IIPR shares are trading lower by 21.4% to $74.93 at last check Friday.

Bill Gates doesn't shy away from paying taxes. In fact, he <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/07/39657043/bill-gates-wants-to-pay-more-in-taxes-ive-been-disproportionately-rewarded-while-many-others-who">thinks he should be paying more – </a>a lot more. But if he feels that way, why doesn't the multibillionaire voluntarily hand over a bigger slice of his fortune to Uncle Sam?&nbsp;
It's a question critics love to ask and Gates has been clear about his stance. In a 2019 end-of-the-year GatesNotes blog post, he addressed the question: "People pay taxes as an obligation of law and citizenship, not out of charity."
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/1milsaved"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
<li><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">Are you rich?</a> Here&#8217;s what Americans think you need to be considered wealthy.</li>
</ul>
This isn't some new talking point for Gates. For years, he's publicly advocated for a fairer, more progressive tax system. Back in the 2019 blog post, he pointed out what he sees as a fundamental problem: "The U.S. government simply does not bring in enough money to meet its obligations. This isn't a value judgment; it's just a fact." And Gates believes the wealthiest Americans – including himself – should be doing more to close that gap.
It's not just lip service, either. Gates and his father were early champions of raising the federal estate tax and they supported creating a state income tax in Washington, one of the most regressive tax states in the country. The reasoning is simple: Gates doesn't believe wealth and power should be concentrated in families just because they happened to hit the jackpot a generation ago. "A dynastic system where you can pass vast wealth along to your children is not good for anyone," he's said, explaining why he and Melinda plan to give most of their fortune to charity instead of leaving it to their kids.

Still, the question persists: Why not lead by example and pay more than required? Gates has a straightforward answer. He argues that taxes aren't meant to be optional. Voluntary contributions, while noble, aren't a scalable solution to funding the public good. "If Melinda and I signed over our foundation's entire endowment to the state of California, it wouldn't be enough to fund their public schools for even one year," he wrote. For Gates, a robust tax system – designed to be fair and consistent – is the only way to address inequality and meet the government's obligations.
He's particularly critical of how the current tax system favors wealth over work. Capital gains, which comprise a large portion of income for the wealthiest Americans, are taxed at just 20%, while labor income can be taxed up to 37%. That discrepancy, Gates argues, is unfair. "I don't see any reason to favor wealth over work the way we do today," he said, suggesting that capital gains taxes should be raised to match income taxes.
Trending: The average American couple has saved this much money for retirement —<a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset"> How do you compare</a>?
Gates also supports closing loopholes in the estate tax, removing caps on Medicare taxes and taxing long-held fortunes that often escape scrutiny. He's quick to point out that these changes wouldn't just be symbolic gestures – they'd help <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/12/42396804/could-the-super-catch-up-be-your-ticket-to-a-richer-retirement-starting-in-2025-60-year-olds-can-save-an-extra-11250">create a more balanced system</a> where everyone contributes their fair share.
But Gates isn't blind to the importance of incentives. He's careful to stress that taxes shouldn't be raised so high that they discourage innovation. After all, when he and Paul Allen started Microsoft in the 1970s, the top marginal tax rate was nearly double what it is today and it didn't stop them from building one of the world's most valuable companies. In his view, there's still plenty of room to increase taxes on the wealthy without stifling entrepreneurship or economic growth.
Trending: Can you guess how many retire with a $5,000,000 nest egg? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/5mil-nest-egg-adv">The percentage may shock you</a>.
While Gates has no intention of writing unsolicited checks to the IRS, his commitment to giving back is clear. Through philanthropy, he and Melinda focus on tackling global challenges like health, education and climate change – areas where private foundations can often take risks that governments or corporations can't. As he sees it, philanthropy and fair taxation aren't mutually exclusive; they're complementary ways of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-rich">addressing inequality and driving progress</a>.
Ultimately, Gates believes <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/12/42438799/bill-gates-predicts-ai-in-the-workforce-will-lead-to-so-much-leisure-time-but-itll-create-a-what-do-we-do-with-all-that-time-problem">real change</a> won't come from one billionaire's checkbook. It has to come from rethinking the system itself. "We've updated our tax system before to keep up with changing times," he wrote, "and we need to do it again, starting with raising taxes on people like me." For Gates, it's not about the size of his contribution – it's about creating a system where everyone pays their fair share, not out of charity, but out of obligation.

<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/">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.

As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Mastercard has grown since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to fall in the near-term but traders should be aware that more shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Mastercard'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://pro.benzinga.com/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Mastercard's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 4.86%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
