The Macerich Company (NYSE: MAC) is a self-managed and self-administered real estate investment trust (REIT) and a prominent name in the S&P 500 index. The company specializes in the acquisition, leasing, management, development, and redevelopment of regional malls across the United States. Macerich focuses on high-quality retail properties in densely populated and attractive markets, including California, Arizona, Chicago, the Greater New York Metro area, and Washington, D.C.
