Rite Aid Corp (RAD)

CAPS Rating:
**

The Company is a Delaware corporation and through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, operates retail drugstores in the United States of America.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

We all need drugs. Positioning is everything. RAD has made some extremely strong moves on location of stores.

I rode this one down from $3-$1.30. Since the purchase by CVS of Longs Drug i believe it is now time to go "long" on Rite Aid. This is not because they are a good company....because they are not. I am a pharmacist and i would not let any of my family members get rx's from there but the are a good target to start breaking the company up and selling stores to bidders like Walgreen's and CVS.

Plus, how much worse can the news actually get for this bad company?

Massive debt now seems insurmountable. This macro downturn could finally be too much for RAD to overcome.

The worst may be behind this mediocre Retail/Pharmacy Store.

A speculative, turnaround drugstore play trading very close to all-time lows of $1.35/share as integration of Brooks/Eckerd along with promotional spending continues to generate losses. Longer term, over 5,000 locations should capitalize on convenience as consumers look for local solutions due to high gas prices.
