To all, cpu stores are still profitable and will stay profitable. They make money on selling high margins products, their service departments are all booked, make lots of money on repairs and upgrades, they have army of corporate sales people with big accounts. How they come up with that 5-6B revenue? They are here to stay and become dominant of service and convenience. Supposedly your toshiba keyboard gets screwed up by spilling coffee on it, where do you go to get help? those little stores which are running by minorities, simply charge you alot to replace the keyboard. And nobody carries the parts. But you can go to CPU store, they order the part for you, and you are assured there is a reliable company behind the service department rather than a ripped off joint.
Ok, the problem cpu has been having, buying the COmputer city stores, Upgrading their internal system to SAP, Buying manufacturing sites to build their own brand of computers, all these growth cost money and bring their own organizational headaches. But the bussiness plan is good, not well refined, and not the right management for the job.
But I'm sure they will get their shit together and surpirse the market, sooon.
Just stay patient, and average your price while the stock price is close or under it's real value.
Best Regards. |
