All the retail went up today. I think they are betting on good X-mas sales. Remember that good xmas sales may not translate into good BBY sales. The more I think about BBY the more I think they'll take a pasting this christmas. I don't know what their product mix is but I do know they are very dependant on computer sales. Now I read somewhere (I can't remember where) that we will have a very good xmas compared to last year except for in the tech stuff. I also note that circut city just had lawsuit won against them for discrimnation. The money wasn't much but I'm wondering what impact, if any, it will have on the Tech retail. We also have a some electronic retail shop in Minneapolis called Audio King. I went to see how they and other retail businesses were do this weekend. Although they were busy on friday they (Circut City, Computer City, Comp USA, Audio King and BBY) were not as busy as I first thought they would be. I think they'll either get hit on same-store-sales or being too dependant on computer sales. The fat lady hasn't sung on this one yet, Frozen Bob
