US Hotel Ownership - Surprise for MAGA

[PeterRS]

Not I think a well known fact. 60% of all the hotels in the United States are owned by Indians or those of Indian ancestry. This includes humble motels right up to a 41% holding in the luxury market including the Four Seasons chain. In just five years that percentage has risen from 50%! The owners represent the largest single force in the American hospitality business.

Er - not American Indians but Indians from the subcontinent. The sort that Trump definitely does not like. Think bigger. Mind you, I suspect he'd be perfectly happy to convert this into a Trump Hotel as long as his name is on it. LOL

Looks like publication is the part of anti-Indian propaganda, reflecting current state of US-India relationship stage. And it sounds racist.

If you want to follow that stream, then you should take a look on small part of leading corporations CEO list: Sundar Pichai (Google), Satya Nadella (Microsoft), Arvind Krishna (IBM), Shantanu Narayen (Adobe).

But I think, what talks about Indian overrepresenting are quite overreacted, and may be inspired by "competing diaspora".

ChatGPT as usual:

Oh, and by the way: number 60% isn't true.

Truth is: 60% of US hotels are owned by members of Asian American Hotel Owners Association (AAHOA). AAHOA, a trade association representing over 20,000 hotel owners, reports that its members collectively own approximately 60% of the hotels in the U.S. And within AAHOA "Indians or those of Indian ancestry" owning about 70% of hotels. 

So real number is about 40%.

Yet again @Moses invents his own statistics and posts them here as facts. @Moses, you are plain wrong! Do you not read? I provided a link and in that link it reads - 

According to industry reports, Indian-origin hoteliers own over 36,000 hotels across the U.S., a majority 60% share of all U.S. hotels. This is a growth from 27,000 to 30,000 hotels in 2020, nearly 50% share of all U.S. hotels then.

I now cite a legal source with exactly the figures I posted -

Oh, and by the way? Who formed the AAHOA? Indian hotel owners. As the AAHOA website states in its opening paragraph -

The story of AAHOA is the story of Indian Americans pursuing – and achieving – the American Dream.

You're stubborn, my dear. Anyone can use Google, okay?

You've screwed up by bringing lies and propaganda here.

"About" 70% of "around" 60% is 40% +/- 2-3%. Did you study math? Doesn't look like the answer is "yes."

In that site from which you quote, nowhere are any members listed other than indians or indian-Americans. Indeed, as I quoted, from AAHOA's History in its own prospectus, AAHOA was formed by this group. Bloomberg, Avana Capital and other sites agree. The ownership by indians or indian-Americans in this group is 60% - not 40%. You may have your own Russian maths. I go by what i read in reputable and business journals.

And yet you who have more than once trashed google use it your argument! Ha!

No need to suspect. 😄

One of his many failed ventures...
