The Sears and "K-Smear" stores around here have had tumbleweeds blowing through them for most of the past year, including the shopping season for last Christmas. It is actually quite surprising that they are still in business. Has to be something specific to this area because the local stores are surely losing money hand over fist.

The Misses and I both think they are the next national chain to go bankrupt. Quality is nothing special. Selection is nothing special. Prices are nothing special.

Lampert is running the show just to blow the company cash jamming its stock price up:

marketwatch.com

Lampert has said he's considering selling some of Sears' products, such as Kenmore appliances, to other stores in addition to selling them online or via catalogs to bolster sales. He's also defended the company's position for not investing more money in its stores, saying that until the company figures out a way to improve the productivity of investments, the company will seek to be "responsible with capital."

Responsible my a$$! The only thing I can't figure is why he doesn't show up as selling any shares in the past year. Does he have some way around the reporting requirement?
