well, their returns still suck, they are still growing inventory (+21%) faster than sales (+16%), it still costs them too much to put up a store, and i'm just starting to wonder if maybe there aren't a few too many of these things (BBBY & LIN) out there (there are about 800 now, and for these to hit their growth goals there have to be over 1000 in two years; for comparison, HD and LOW, which operate in a much larger market, have a combined 2100-ish stores). i think its worth a little less than book, between $11-14.
