Via Reuters: Kmart Buying Sears in $11 Billion Deal.
Discount retailer Kmart Holding Corp. will buy department store operator Sears, Roebuck & Co. in a surprise $11 billion deal that creates the third-largest U.S. retailer, the companies said on Wednesday.
Here we see the influence of Wal*Mart on the marketplace.
However, wasn’t K-mart in bankruptcy just a year ago? I would’ve thought that it would’ve been Sears acquiring K-mart, not the other way around.
Maybe if we tie two rocks together, they’ll float.

Penn Central.
Unisys.
Studebaker-Packard.
The EU.

That’s about my take, but you put it much more effectively. LOL!
