Subject: Circuit City To Close 155 stores

It'll probably be good for the company overall, since it was pretty
common knowledge within the company that around 200 of its stores were
gigantic loss generators.  At this point it's better for them to have
less stores that are not bleeding cash than more stores and continued
hemmoraging.

You are well behind, I think. This will gap up on Monday and $1+ by
the weekend.

Walmart is still ill prepared for as electronics outlet .
Circuit City closing will only give Best Buy to dictate prices and
rule the industry till last CC store falls.
Sad BUT amazing fruit of capitalism!

Guys grab Radio Shack, OMX, ODP stocks now.

CC  this is great news for share holders.  getting rid of fire dog,car
installations,150 stores and 7500 employees// good news.  this stock
goes to 78-1.08 tomorrow.  CC is going to make a comeback from the
dead,  this is why i threw 2000 shares at it on wed i guess.  man i
called three stocks this past week,  CC GKK and tata motors, wish me
luck this week.....I am hedging that CC does have a loss for q-4, but
by q-2 this little rocky of a company is pounding away on Mr T. 3.45
in q-2.  da na na da na na

Why RadioShack?  And ODP is losing money (not profitable currently),
so why pick that one when there are many other profitable companies.
And, as for OMX, they will have a large write down this quarter,
resulting in negative earnings; so, while OMX looks tantalizing, I
expect it to drop precipitously right after this coming earnings
announcement, but would look to buy it when that drop seems to have
bottomed (probably within a day or two of the announcement).  That's
my guestimate at any rate.

"CC  this is great news for share holders.  this stock

Anyone else agree with this?  I heard the news and got all worried the
stock would go to nil.

I think they do see some benefit here. It's going to be a tough road.
This closing was way overdue. This 150 stores includes some real pigs.
What they call "legacy real estate"- meaning old dead centers or
locations, stuff that should have been cycled out a long time ago if
this was a healthy retailer.

I am thinking this move comes as no small coincidence to the delisting
warning received last week. This will be part of their plan to get the
stock back above a buck. I just don't understand how they intend to
walk away from all these landlord obligations without a chapter 11.
Good luck with that.

I think this news provides a better chance for shareholders to recover
their positions than the most likely alternative - bankruptcy.  It's a
sad moment for employees, but from the tone of posts by employees on
this forum, it sounds like many employees are disgruntled and will be
better of emotionally to move on to other employment.  Ironically, I
think the best consolation for ex-employess would be to now invest in
CC.  If the stock price goes up from this paring down of the company's
size, these ex-employees can probably make more money trading CC stock
than they would have received in salary.

going down since an year. I really do not care if they write about cc
in disgruntled manner!

Well, Mr. Jack Loftus (of Gizmodo Australia), how about some honesty
as opposed to dishonesty you put out as "news"!  You are quite close
to being a blad-faced liar, and seem like someone desperately trying
to push CC's stock further down!  First, you say that Sony has
discontinued shipments to CC, and that is false; Sony turned around
trucks headed to a CC distribution center that had a huge sinhole
appear right next to the building.  Sony has NOT discontined
merchandise shipments to CC.  Second, you now have the gall to claim
that CC is "withdrawing from the consumer electronics business for
good."  Again, that is patently false on your part.  CC has done and
is doing no such thing; rather, CC is closing unprofitable stores in
an effort to avoid bankruptcy altogether and to begin to turn the
company around profitably by keeping its many other profitable stores
in business--as consumer electronics sellers!  Come to think of it,
you ARE a liar!

There are thousands of employees who still work with CC for their
family in this tough economic time. They still have faith to pull on
the disaster.

You abandoned Aussies grab your Fosters and think of your forefathers
and STFN!
