Financial Surveys & Statistics

Here are some random, but relevant statistics that I’ve collected the past week.

8.8% – The vacancy rate at big U.S. shopping malls, the highest rate in at least a decade. Asking rent fell 0.6% to an average $38.79 per square foot, the lowest in four years. (Source: Reis Inc.)

29% – The percentage of U.S. CEOs who said they plan to add jobs in the United States over the next six months, compared with the 21% who plan to cut. This marks the first time since the first quarter of 2008 that more CEOs plan to add jobs than to eliminate them. (Source: Business Roundtable)

$1.6 Billion – The estimated value of the New York Yankees, the most valuable team in Major League Baseball, up 7% from last year. The Boston Red Sox became the second-most-valuable team, at $870 million, surpassing the New York Mets, at $858 million. (Source: Forbes)

830 – The number of video games that have already been developed for Apple’s iPad tablet computer, which went on sale April 3. That number doesn’t include the 25,000 iPad Touch and iPhone games that also can be played on the new gadget. (Source: Reuters)

$1.4 Million – The price paid for the eight-bedroom house next door to the Obama family home on the South Side of Chicago. The previous owners bought the 6,000-square-foot home in 1973 for $35,000. (Source: Associated Press)
