Malls are dying in general. I imagine that most stores that have traditionally relied on malls and shopping centers to service their core business are going to struggle. I honestly don't know any one of my wives or sisters friends, or my daughter and her friends who have shopped at Limited any time in the last several years.

My wife and daughters don't ever go to the mall. I can't remember the last time I've been in one, but I'm not exactly their main target demographic anymore.

Yep. The Mall staple retailers (Footlocker/Victoria's Secret/Champs) are closing in droves. Any enclosed malls that are still operating are full of odd/specialty tenants resembling a Turkish Bazaar with tons of gold chains/cellphone covers & weird clothing.

Some of the proposed buyers / financiers here are mall owners.

It's an interesting concept. If the malls own the retail companies, can they cut out enough levels of expense to keep the wheels moving for a few more years?
