Jimbo & Thread: KMART & Safeway 2 Merge??????? (How about COMPAQ & A&P???????) By The Associated Press DETROIT (AP) -- Kmart Corp. stock closed up nearly 12 percent Friday after a published report said the company could be the target of a merger with supermarket giant Safeway Corp. Kmart's stock closed at $17, up $1.81 1/4 in heavy trading on the New York Stock Exchange. Business Week magazine reported Thursday that Safeway was looking at Kmart in the wake of Wal-Mart Corp.'s recent purchase of British supermarket chain Asda Group PLC. Kmart chairman Floyd Hall said in October that the company would consider merging or aligning with a grocery business. In recent years, Kmart and Wal-Mart have been designing stores that combine groceries and other retail goods under one roof. While Wal-Mart has been successful with its sprawling Supercenters, some Wall Street analysts have said Kmart needed another company's help to build a food distribution system. Kmart spokeswoman Mary Lorencz said Friday the company had no comment on the rumors. Melissa Plaisance, spokeswoman for California-based Safeway, declined to comment directly on the report, but repeated an earlier statement that ''the focus of the company's acquisitions has been high-quality supermarkets.''
