Hi Paul, I did an analysis of post-bankruptcy GUCO - the Grand Union company. They were recapitalized but I doubt they can be really profitable this year. I ran their data thru my meatgrinder and found some interesting comparison: If You consider PUSH (Publix) and SWY (Safeway) as one of the most succesful business models in the grocery industry, I tried to compare average sales per normalized (full time) employee. Found out that GUCO got 0,22m $ while PUSH got 0,19 and SWY got 0,25. This means that productivity is ok. Only margins still are not. They hired an IT-wiz-kid to make improvements. I'm not investing into GUCO at this time but I'm eagerly waiting for this company do get out their next 10Q. My prediction is a loss of 0,60-0,70 for the next 2 quarters. What I'm looking for are measures to boost margins. The only thing they did up to now was to install the Insignia-POS Point of Sale software package. Anyway I'm waiting for more info from GUCO, especially regarding changes in their business model. best regards CROSSY
