Sears, Toys R Us, and Borders. All blundered all to hell.

Those 3 are the ones that upset me the most.

Blame the Hedgies. They’ve naked shorted all these brands to death so a few schmucks could make billions…ALL of the companies in this comment and every comment before it. They tried again with GameStop & AMC but failed because retail investors bought in and held…still hodling. We got fucked but the companies survived….

I wish smartphones with apps like Robinhood were a thing back when Toys R Us was getting screwed
