Simon Property Group Inc , the biggest U.S. mall operator, said on Wednesday it was ending its $3.6 billion deal to buy Taubman Centers Inc , citing the beating the retail sector has taken during the COVID-19 pandemic.

There are no discussions about renegotiating the transaction at a lower valuation, a person familiar with the matter said.
