GUCO is running. Don't know the reason really. There are rumors of a buyout by a larger supermarket chain, buy I can not verify this. The other option is that they have reached aggrements on restructuring and refinancing. Either way, in my opinion this company is much too big to let trade at .55 or to let go under by backers. I am watching closly.
