Note what the link says about SVO sales.

"Hotel chains aren't necessarily immune to the real estate crunch. A big sandbag in Starwood's report was a 29% dip in vacation ownership and residential sales."
Perhaps that's why the 5* Elite qualifier was raised to 649,000 options. In any event, in this iffy economy, Starwood is certainly debt-ridden.
Finally, while the link (FWIW) says sell Starwood, it has a buy for II.
