Hey Bill, Check this out: Carlos Slim Helu is chairman of Grupo Carso SA, a holding company whose Grupo Sanborns SA retailing unit operates Sears stores in Mexico, music shops, and a restaurant and specialty retailer called Sanborns. The OfficeMax purchase marks the second time in two months that the Slim family has invested in a U.S. retailer. In November, the Slims and their Grupo Carso SA reported holding a 14.8 percent stake in CompUSA Inc., the largest U.S retailer of personal computers. The investors also said they may enter joint ventures or other transactions involving the company. I wonder if this is the "Carlo" you were wondering about from a previous post on the GUMM thread. Just wondering, Phil Edit: Sorry Allen, I meant this to be posted to Bill, I simply responded to your post.
