RadioShack Plummets: Stock Now "Worthless"

James Quinn posits that RadioShack will likely go bankrupt before Christmas. "When your stock price is 85 cents, it ain’t a long way to zero."

I’ve been writing about the demise of RadioShack since 2012. I wrote this in February 2013:

Radioshack operates 7,000 locations and employs 34,000 people. Their only chance at survival is to close their 30% worst performing stores immediately. Retail CEOs rarely have the wisdom and reality based thinking to do what needs to be done. Time will tell, but this is just another dead retailer walking.  

They will be lucky to make it through Christmas before declaring bankruptcy. There will be thousands more "Space Available Signs" in strip centers and dying malls across America. When your stock price is 85 cents, it ain’t a long way to zero.

Told ya so.

RadioShack is worthless and weak.
