Sorry for the title.....there are a few interconnected thoughts that I would like to explore and laziness set in as far as multiple posts.....

666 5th Ave. I don't frequent multi-story office buildings or hotels, but don't most places avoid the dreaded "13th" floor? I have no idea how long this building has carried this address, but wouldn't 664 1/2 or something similar been little more foresighted? I have worked with people who would not go near an invoice or a PO with any combination of triple 6's. What was the reason this was thought to be a good investment? Also reports that Vornado (approx 50% owner) wants to sell and the Kushners are seen as prime buyers....wtf?

I am a full believer in coincidences, but to have Carl Icahn sell of a large portion of his 'steel' holdings prior to a tariff announcement and Kushner Companies attempt to get Qatar's approval for loans, be denied and then the Administration siding with the blockade of the same nation............

The third leg of my fried rice metaphor is this question. According to my reading, the mortgage on the 666 property is due and payable in early 2019. What happens if the Kushner Co. can't pay?

Anyhow now I am hungry, probably going to get Chinese carry out tonight.......pork, beef and shrimp fried rice!

If Icahn's steel holdings are USA, then he lost money because this boosts USA steel businesses.

Good point on Kushner, but being a master of manipulating the edge of bankruptcy seems to be family planning not accidental.

Nice choice on the fried rice. I looked at the post because I thought it was a clever allusion to Condoleeza Rice and her current publicity regarding Russian election meddling and military power.

with props to Kobie, lol, wut?
 
I try never to give false hope where the kob is concerned, sorry. Ask specific questions, not the general "wut?", maybe that might help.

I know sonic booms are tough, hang in there..

LOL The holding were of companies that USE steel not make it. They are screwed because their exports will no longer be competitive and their foreign competitors have a price advantage here too. Imports that use cheaper steel will have an advantage over domestic manufacturers. It is just one of the many reasons these tariffs are a terrible idea.
