$1000 Invested In Simon Property Group 5 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Looking into the current session, Simon Property Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPG#NYSE">SPG</a>) shares are trading at $165.75, after a 0.20% decrease. Over the past month, the stock fell by 9.71%, but over the past year, it actually went up by 10.68%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743526822_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>Comparing Simon Property Group P/E Against Its Peers</h3>
The P/E ratio is used by long-term shareholders to assess the company's market performance against aggregate market data, historical earnings, and the industry at large. A lower P/E could indicate that shareholders do not expect the stock to perform better in the future or it could mean that the company is undervalued. 
Simon Property Group has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 107.49 of the Retail REITs industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1743526822_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

<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.

<h3>Comparing Simon Property Group's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>

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>, Simon Property Group's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 6.52%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.

<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

Simon Property Group Q4 FFO $3.68 Beats $3.41 Estimate, Sales $1.58B Beat $1.40B Estimate

U.S. stocks advanced midday Tuesday, demonstrating resilience despite escalating geopolitical tensions and trade uncertainties between the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/econ-s">world&#8217;s two largest economies.</a>
China responded to President Donald Trump&#8216;s 10% import tariff with targeted countermeasures, including restrictions on key mineral exports to the U.S. and tariffs on American energy products.
Beijing is raising tariffs by 10%-15% on select U.S. imports, including coal, liquefied natural gas, crude oil, agricultural machinery and vehicles. Additionally, China added PVH Corp. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PVH#NYSE">PVH</a>) and Illumina Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ILMN#NASDAQ">ILMN</a>) to its &#8220;Unreliable Entity List,&#8221; citing the need to &#8220;safeguard national sovereignty, security, and development interests,&#8221; and opened an antitrust investigation on Alphabet Inc.

Market participants had anticipated a call between Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping on Tuesday, but media reports indicated the conversation would not happen today.
The trade developments had an immediate impact on oil markets, with West Texas Intermediate crude futures plunging 3% overnight to as low as $70 per barrel. 
Yet, prices rebounded sharply Tuesday morning following reports that Trump is considering issuing a memorandum aimed at inflicting <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/25/02/43469234/trump-prepares-maximum-pressure-on-iran-oil-jumps-above-73-energy-stocks-rally">maximum economic damage on Iran</a>, potentially leading to a sharp decline in Iranian oil production.
Energy stocks outperformed on the day, while utilities lagged. 
Among individual stocks, Palantir Technologies Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PLTR#NASDAQ">PLTR</a>) rocketed 22% after posting strong earnings and a revenue beat. 
In the commodities market, gold added more than 1%, extending its all-time high, and silver jumped 2.2%. Meanwhile, Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) declined 2% to $99,000.

Earnings Scheduled For February 4, 2025

Looking into the current session, Simon Property Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SPG#NYSE">SPG</a>) shares are trading at $175.53, after a 0.15% drop. Over the past month, the stock fell by 0.05%, but over the past year, it actually increased by 28.65%. With questionable short-term performance like this, and great long-term performance, long-term shareholders might want to start looking into the company's price-to-earnings ratio. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1738334832_0.png" alt="Past Year Chart" />

<h3>A Look at Simon Property Group P/E Relative to Its Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Simon Property Group has a lower P/E than the aggregate P/E of 71.93 of the Retail REITs industry. Ideally, one might believe that the stock might perform worse than its peers, but it's also probable that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1738334832_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In summary, while the price-to-earnings ratio is a valuable tool for investors to evaluate a company's market performance, it should be used with caution. A low P/E ratio can be an indication of undervaluation, but it can also suggest weak growth prospects or financial instability. Moreover, the P/E ratio is just one of many metrics that investors should consider when making investment decisions, and it should be evaluated alongside other financial ratios, industry trends, and qualitative factors. By taking a comprehensive approach to analyzing a company's financial health, investors can make well-informed decisions that are more likely to lead to successful outcomes.

Price Over Earnings Overview: Simon Property Group

The past month has been a rollercoaster ride for investors, with markets taking a beating across the board. From December 15 to January 15, the S&amp;P 500 dropped 4.33%, the Nasdaq fell 4.71%, and small-cap stocks got hammered, tumbling around 8%. The bond market wasn&#8217;t spared either, with long-term Treasury bonds diving 7.67%. Even the typically resilient triple-B corporate bonds fell 3.4%, though high-yield bonds held up better, declining just 1.5% to 1.8%.
It&#8217;s been a challenging period for traditional stock-and-bond investors. Yet the Easy Income Portfolio proved its mettle. While broader markets stumbled, the portfolio declined only 2.5%, supported by its robust 9.38% dividend yield. This yield towers over Treasuries, junk bonds, and the S&amp;P 500. The key? A diversified mix of high-quality, income-generating investments spread across sectors that zig when others zag.
Sector Highlights:
<ol start="1">
<li>Mortgage REITs (REM): These took a significant hit, down 8.65%, reflecting broader challenges in real estate debt markets. </li>
<li>Nuveen Real Asset Income and Growth Fund (Ticker: JRI): Declined notably, despite its diversified exposure to real assets like infrastructure, real estate, and energy. The fund&#8217;s holdings in premier companies such as Simon Property Group, Realty Income, and Energy Transfer illustrate its high-quality asset base. </li>
<li>Aberdeen Asia-Pacific Income Fund: Down 6%, this closed-end fund offers exposure to high-grade sovereign and corporate debt in the Asia-Pacific region, acting as both a dollar hedge and an income-generating asset. </li>
<li>Business Development Companies (BDCs): BDCs like Ares Capital, Blackstone Secured Lending, and FS KKR Capital remain core holdings. These entities leverage their deep private equity relationships to maintain credit quality and deliver strong dividends. </li>
<li>Energy Infrastructure: Investments like Dorchester Minerals and Tortoise Energy Infrastructure have performed well, capturing benefits from increased energy demand and the reorganization of global energy markets. </li>
<li>Closed-End Fund and SPAC Arbitrage: Exposure to these strategies helps add diversification and reduce overall volatility.</li>
</ol>
Mortgage REITs: A Tough Month Mortgage REITs (REM) bore the brunt of market turbulence, dropping 8.65%. That&#8217;s not a fun number to see, but it&#8217;s par for the course in a volatile interest rate environment. These REITs, which invest in residential and commercial mortgage securities, remain a core piece of the portfolio, offering high yields to counterbalance periods of price volatility.
Real Asset Income: A Hidden Opportunity The Nuveen Real Asset Income and Growth Fund (JRI) also faced pressure, declining around 8%. This fund gives you a one-stop shop for exposure to real assets, including infrastructure, real estate, and energy. Think Simon Property Group, Realty Income, Energy Transfer, and Enbridge—some of the best operators in their respective fields.
Simon Property Group Simon Property Group (Ticker: SPG) is the premier operator of Class A malls in the United States, owning high-end shopping centers in affluent, densely populated areas. Unlike struggling Class B and C malls, Simon&#8217;s properties thrive as destinations for luxury shopping, dining, and entertainment.
Simon maintains high occupancy rates, typically in the mid-90% range, driven by the desirability of its properties. Its tenant base spans luxury brands and experiential anchors, reinforcing its status as the leader in mall-based real estate.
Realty Income Known as &#8220;The Monthly Dividend Company,&#8221; Realty Income owns over 13,000 properties across the U.S. and Europe. These properties are leased to high-quality tenants under long-term triple-net leases, where tenants cover taxes, insurance, and maintenance.
Key tenants and sectors include:
<ul>
<li>Convenience Stores: 7-Eleven </li>
<li>Pharmacies: (Ticker: CVS) Walgreens </li>
<li>Big Box Retailers: Home Depot (Ticker: HD) Walmart (Ticker: WMT) </li>
<li>Entertainment and Dining: AMC Theatres (Ticker: AMC) Chick-fil-A</li>
</ul>
Enbridge (Ticker: ENB) is one of North America&#8217;s largest energy infrastructure companies. Its extensive asset base includes over 83,000 miles of crude oil, natural gas, and liquids pipelines that span Canada and the U.S. Enbridge also operates natural gas utility businesses, serving millions of customers in Ontario and Quebec, and is a leader in renewable energy investments, with wind and solar farms contributing to its diversified energy portfolio.
Energy Transfer Energy Transfer owns a vast network of energy infrastructure assets, including 120,000 miles of pipelines for natural gas, crude oil, natural gas liquids, and refined products. The company operates major storage facilities, processing plants, and export terminals, including the Marcus Hook Industrial Complex, a key hub for exporting natural gas liquids to global markets.
One of Energy Transfer&#8217;s standout assets is its LNG export capability, which positions the company to benefit from growing global demand for U.S. liquefied natural gas. Its pipelines and storage facilities are critical links in the supply chain, ensuring the movement of energy products from production basins like the Permian and Marcellus to end users.
These infrastructure giants, Enbridge and Energy Transfer, play essential roles in the energy economy, transporting and storing the resources that power homes, businesses, and industries. Their scale, diversified revenue streams, and regulated nature make them resilient income generators, which is exactly what we seek in the Easy Income Portfolio.
Asia-Pacific Debt: A Dollar Hedge Aberdeen Asia-Pacific Income Fund also had a rough month, down 6%. This closed-end fund invests in high-grade sovereign and corporate debt from countries like Australia, India, and Indonesia. With 13% dividend yields and limited default risk, it&#8217;s a great income producer and a natural hedge against a weakening U.S. dollar.
Business Development Companies: A Core Strength The portfolio&#8217;s BDC holdings, including Ares Capital, Blackstone Secured Lending, and FS KKR, continue to shine. These firms lend to small and mid-sized businesses, a segment set to thrive under pro-business policies. Their private equity relationships provide a massive competitive edge, ensuring they know the borrowers inside and out. Add in an 11% yield, and these BDCs are delivering exactly what we want—steady income with a margin of safety.
The Easy Income Philosophy The Easy Income Portfolio isn&#8217;t about chasing short-term gains or checking prices daily. It&#8217;s about creating a low-volatility, high-income portfolio that practically runs itself. With positions across 15 sectors, from infrastructure and energy to private credit and real estate, the portfolio delivers reliable cash flow through monthly dividends.
This month showed why diversification and a focus on income are essential. Even as markets faltered, the Easy Income Portfolio kept humming along, providing a steady income stream while staying positioned for long-term success.
