Some serious....
Overhaul - restructuring is needed. The retail enviroment, as we all now know, is changing ever so much. Online is the way for many and big box store shopping, especially Costco!!! Costco is ALWAYS, ALWAYS packed with lined up people. Costco is like a fricken entertainment / sporting venue with the amount of people it attracts.
HBC has glorious real estate assets but the retail side needs urgent attention imo.

JMO but I think this sector is done The "craigslist price" is the real price I think Sears had Craftsman valued at around $1.5 billion (ballpark from memory) and took $900 million

There is so much retail real estate coming on the market for sale it means sellers will get considerably less than analysts estimate. I've read that HBC real estate is estimated at $25 per share but that just a ridiculous number. Try $10 per share and that number is closer to reality.

the flagship store in Manhattan is worth as much as the company.
