The market seems to have come to the conclusion that the 28 percent operating returns that (Wal-Mart) earned before the 2001 recession are a thing of the past.

They accomplished the most important thing for a retailer in that they sold more stuff.

You might say that it does appear that they want to capitalize on the center of San Francisco downtown retail expanding and moving south. I guess they want to own the whole thing.

It's about time they did something about the threat to a key business. They sell music already; why not bring it up to speed?

They take the locations that are desirable . . . that they can get.
