Dick's Sporting Goods stock tanked on Tuesday morning, dropping a staggering 19% in premarket trade...
quote:

The company recently revealed to shareholders that it missed consensus for its second quarter profit while also seeing a decline in sales.

CEO Lauren Hobart referenced "the impact of elevated inventory shrink," an issue she says is taking a toll on many retailers.

Inventory shrink can included damaged goods, but in most cases it refers to shoplifting. Multiple retailers have been affected by coordinated shoplifting, including Walmart and Target.

The retailers say they believe the root of this issue is organized crime and that the losses they experience from said shoplifting can be measured in billions of dollars.

Good! THE worst company on earth. Worse that AT&T.

I bought a bike from them 5 or 6 yrs ago that came damaged. It took me 1 solid year to get them to make it right. It was organized alright, organized denial by every worthless fck that works there...from the bottom to the top. Not a more deserving bankruptcy candidate!

Some company will get aggressive with either Taser or letting a big ole "used to be" lineman get to block them from leaving.

Before long they will just give the truck driver an envelope with cash and take the truck. Probably easier anyway.
