When an industry has both union and non-union businesses, I think investors should be hesitant to invest in the union businesses.

Spekulatius,

Good point. SVU has Jewel stores in my area, and they are also on the expensive side. So, SVU is not a pure discount grocer by any means. But, they do have a variety of stores across the price ranges and therefore will hopefully be able to figure out what brand mix is the best for profitability and go with that strategy. So, good point that SVU is not a discount grocer overall, but I'd rather have a company with diversity,at least, like SVU than WFMI.

Thanks,

Grant
