If Sears is going to emerge out of bankruptcy, they need to reinvent themselves through a heavy investment online, in store and marketing. The history would suggest that if Eddie remains at the helm, investing in these areas won’t happen. It’s over for Sears!

But you can rest assured Lampert will make a Yuge profit off it

Nice
