stock is very under priced. New strategies along with international growth with Lyreco and domestic partnership with Safeway stores will show dramatic growth and profits over the next 5 years. odp will inevetibly go out of business before end of 2009 giving more market share to omx.

Have you been in one of these places lately? Dull, less-than-helpful employees, no one around when you need them... This may sound weird -- it feels like a fake storefront set up for a movie, or an FBI sting. I personally know 2 employees, and they're both looking to work elsewhere.

OfficeMax is severely underpriced just look at the p/e ratio of it and its competitors. Staples is priced around 16 p/e ratio while OfficeMax is around 7 p/e ratio. I was looking at the balance sheet and running some simple liquidity ratios and everything seems to check out fine. The only difference is that OfficeMax is smaller compared to Staples. You could also compare OfficeMax with Office Depot. When I was first looking at office max it was around 19 dollars per share now people are buying it up to 20.79 and it will only go up because it is so under-priced. If you want a safe bet during these risky times, I have to say this is my very top pick but I'm just a finance student at University of Washington so I'm too broke to put any money at where I think is making money.

Every since the market wanted OMX to hit .93 and missed, it has been going to down every since. It has lowered more than enough and I personally take advantage. They put up good numbers and you need to look into OMX.

Office Max knows how to go to market. They are gaining strength through agressive bidding strategies. I do have reservtions about staying in too long, The stock will rise 12-24 mth. Success will be determined if customers re-up on contracts.

Keep in mind that OfficeMax and the government have contracts in place... The government isn't going away and the need for supplies will always be there. Also low PE ratio and great time to buy in.

continued pressure on consumer spending will weigh on this stock over the next year.

Mismanaged company but many layoffs coming. Have a strong call center in oklahoma city and omax will close the stores in bad areas to creat value.

During March 2007, Sharper Image Corporation announced a multi-year licensing agreement with OfficeMax, wherein OfficeMax will offer Sharper Image branded office furniture and accessories made exclusively for OfficeMax under the Sharper Image Office brand. The Sharper Image Office product line is a good balance between form, function and style that adds a whole new level of sophistication to OfficeMax's home office furnishings. Products will include desks, chairs, shredders, desk sets, accessories and related items. Additional product collections are to debut throughout 2007 and beyond.

OfficeMax recently opened a new store at Eden Prairie, Minnesota. Also it opened a second store at Minnesota located at Cambridge. The company plans to open 60 new stores and 100 remodels in the U.S. this year. For the first quarter, total sales improved marginally. However the company posted profit as compared to loss in the first quarter of last year. Considering the above factors, the shares of OfficeMax should provide some upturns for the investors.
