kakatiya Posted April 9, 2017 Report Share Posted April 9, 2017 If Sears Holdings (NASDAQ:SHLD) ends up going bankrupt, as its recent annual filing with the SEC admits is a possibility, there's the potential the sale of its Craftsman tool business it cemented with Stanley Black & Decker (NYSE:SWK) could become undone. For the moment it doesn't seem as though it's going to happen, but it underscores just how tenuous Sears' position is and how far the effects a bankruptcy filings would reach. IMAGE SOURCE: SEARS HOLDINGS. A telling admission Sears caused a tumult when it filed its 10-K report that said based on how bad its financial performance has been, it indicated "substantial doubt exists related to the Company's ability to continue as a going concern." That was like a fire bell clanging in the hall, because even though almost everyone knew Sears was careening downhill, it was the first time the retailer itself acknowledged the potential it could implode. And what was even more revealing was the fact that if it did declare bankruptcy, the courts could unwind the Craftsman deal with Stanley if it found Sears was already insolvent at the time of the deal, became insolvent because of it, or the deal left it with insufficient assets to continue operating because they could all be construed as violating laws of "fraudulent conveyance and transfer."

I agree to a part kaani...best buy eppudu ayyithey amazon tho price match cheyyadam start chesindo it has picked up...majority of them like to pick up electronics immediately and if it is available in store around 25miles and a price match also. If u r using best buy credit card and you pay off once for the product u get 6% back so definitely best buy is the catch...amazon holds lots of products I agree...I personally go to amazon for reviews and get a price match for those elecs and get that on spot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
