micheal, this is what has happened. some stores have too many. but remember any channel over will not be counted in cpq's 3 and 4q results, bec. cpq has substracted out via their reserve system.
Cpq will also force some stores to just flush out inventory to make room. they will too.
you will see some sales of cpq's at cost.
It will hurt store profits not cpq profits.
I don't antisipate real damage to cpq though. most will be put off to markets that will not hurt if they flush through.
How this is done??? no way I reveal that. don't want to give that one away.
I think if cpq mentions this on the 24th then some of it is happening. if cpq says nothing then it's not going to hurt cpq..
but, it could hurt others..
If you would listen just once and do what I said ..you will have winner.
