Lowe's is likely being bought out. -------------------------- They stand to make more on the sale if they reduce costs and increase shareholder confidence Please don't be deluded about the Lowe's of the past. This is the future and this is big business, S---s for all of us.

Clearly yall have never heard of anti trust.
No one buys a dying business model. Look at Sears. Look at JCP.. The rats are jumping ship.
I would love to see HD buy Lowe's. HD I.T. backend is simply amazing. The integration from vendor to sales floor to returns to customer service to even the self checkouts is all one single unified platform, it's all the same system from start to finish, no genesis and multiple other bullcrap systems to sign into and out of. they only spent 450mil on the system during development and it's paid off 100x over already. Lowe's can't even execute getting the price signage right for an appliance sale. 50% to 70% of all price signs for appliances is wrong each and every week for the last several years and no one at corporate cares to fix it. they just keep blowing money on printing. my bet is that someone on the board of directors or someone's wife at corporate owns that printing company and is bilking lowe's for everything it's worth while they can.
Could end up being Walmart
Lowe's and Sears could merge and bring back the Radio Shack brand name. Omni-Channel selling baby!
Not sure who could buy Lowe's.. can't be HD as the monopoly rules..
