- Henry: $WBA the press release says they will be closing stores, but not how many stores.
- DavidG: @Henry $WBA they reportedly said "wil be closing a significant number" of their stores. Sounds bad. Down 14% premarket
- Henry: @DavidG $WBA It is sad to see companies that were once power houses, fade away. Sears, KMart, Montgomery Ward, Eastern Airlines
- BocaRick: @Henry $WBA #Cramer said 3,000 of 8,600???
- PhilHarmonic: @Henry $WBA Chart has been in a downtrend since 2015. It was removed from the DJIA in February of this year, replaced by Amazon. Look at Boeing if you want another example of a good company going bad.
- PhilHarmonic: $WBA $BA I find it interewsting and mystical that the last two letters in Walgreens Stock Symbol is BA which is Boeing's stock symbol.
- phgruver: @PhilHarmonic @Henry $WBA The neighborhood drug store has been preempted by $WMT and $TGT by offering longer hours, better product selection and lower prices. They are going the way of the neighborhood hardware store (driven under by $HD and $LOW). I still get my drugs from $CVS, but they are located inside my local Target, not a free standing store.

TraderGeekSam: ...
We opened one new option trade yesterday on $NVO and didn't stop out or take profits on anything. Due to yesterday's poor action, I moved up the stop on $WBA, which is an intraday stop.
The online trades spreadsheet was updated on Tuesday evening, ... - Henry: $AMZN in the Dow, $UBER in the Dow transports, $WBA and $JBLU are out
- Wolf: $WBA Beat earnings and Rev. Mixed Guidance. Cut Div in half. Was up PM, Now slightly down.
- DrScience: $WBA strong again today, chewing through downtrend line resistance at 21.50. We could see 23 today if the stock keeps finding buyers.
- DrScience: $WBA crossed $23 target. Sold 1/2 my stock here and looking to add back around $22 if we see a pullback. Walgreens is one of the many companies that have been sued for their role in the opioid epidemic. Walgreens has agreed to pay $5.5 million to settle allegations that it failed to properly monitor its distribution of prescription painkillers. Evidently, $WBA investors are more sanguine about additional lawsuits now that the Supreme Court bankruptcy ruling against Purdue Pharma and the Sackler family has dropped. While the ruling has no direct impact on Walgreens, the possibility of further cash-draining lawsuits appears to has been mitigated -- for now.

- Pokersmith: Walgreens to Provide Abbott's BinaxNow COVID-19 Self Test at Stores, Online Without Prescription Walgreens ($WBA) said Monday it has entered into an agreement with Abbott ($ABT) to sell the BinaxNow rapid antigen self-test, over-the-counter in all its stores for $23.99, without prescription. Customers can self-administer the test collection using a short nasal swab, and not the deep and invasive nasopharyngeal swab. The results will be available in 15 minutes. Abbott received US Food and Drug Administration emergency use authorization for over-the-counter use of this test for detection of COVID-19 infection on March 31. Beginning this week, this test can be bought on Walgreens.com, and later this week, it will be available in-store, for curbside pick-up, and same day delivery.

... - Hemal: $WBA reports earnings BMO tomorrow. I own $CVS, based on post earnings action on $RAD (negative reaction due to lowered guidance it seemed like) as long as $WBA reports good results and forecast is projected well $CVS may run as well. Implied move between light lines as shown by circle
- bwcarnation1: @champ $RAD $WBA similar
- Explorer: @champ $RAD -- $WBA and $CVS as a sector play -- $RAD is the best
- champ: @bwcarnation1 $RAD $WBA---- Yes....but one is wearing a Red hat.
- champ: @Explorer $RAD $WBA $CVS ----- Could also be, that games are being played.....$RKT
- maracom: @Hemal $CVS I like $WBA over $CVS. $WBA is breaking out on the chart, and if you're looking for yield (which is a part of the value trade), it's got 3.7% instead of CVS's 2.7%
- Hemal: @maracom $CVS $WBA $CVS has better fundamentals in my opinion and I look at fundamentals before entering any transactions. I am not looking at yield either. $WBA is extended at this point and $CVS is setting up with a low risk entry and should most likely move anytime. $WBA is a retail story while $CVS is a healthcare conglomerate. I own several different position in $CVS at different cost basis. I do agree technically $WBA is in much better position and ahead of $CVS at this point in time.

- champ: @traderbren --- Funny but these governors that aren't getting out the vaccines, in the arm of those who need it, 70 and older, could be just stalling. There is just No other way, to explain how dumb these state politicians are. No plans, on getting vaccines out, they have them now but got caught with No plans, just like ventilators, masked and all the other supplies, that they didn't have. ~~ In California, just last Thursday, our governor just decided that he had to pay $CVS and $WBA, to go into #Nursing-Homes, in Ca., they weren't even ready to start saving lives, in Nursing-Homes. Only the local Hospitals and the First-Responders had plans, in California, they started on Day-1, plus at all Police and Fire stations.... but not Nursing Homes.
- riskmanager: @champ $CVS $WBA #Nursing-Homes I just read an article that health care workers are rejecting the vaccine in significant numbers. My take, they should just offer the vaccine to all takers and stop with the "priority" stipulation. California and NY have threatened to suspend a practitioners' medical license if they vaccinate out of turn.
- champ: @riskmanager $CVS $WBA #Nursing-Homes --- Yes that News has just started spinning around, it doesn't effect me, so it can spin, however I will take my shot, in the first few minutes, that they say I can,.....I have a Concierge-Doctor, and I will be getting an induced stress test, by the hospital staff, they are in my doctors location, in late January, because I had a knee replacement a while back. I'm 76, so I'm on the current Ca-List, for sometime soon...... but I don't feel 76 and I'm still very active, hopeful that trend will continue, I want to hang around for a little longer, because I have a few long term trades working.........

- champ: @CraigReynolds $RAD $WBA #pre-set-ups #when-if-resistance-stall-top #unknown --- I sent you a post on $WBA,....just to large, I aways say, No-Thanks and I just move on....
- CraigReynolds: $RAD $WBA The drug store stocks must be on drugs, keep on going up.
- champ: @CraigReynolds $RAD $WBS ----- I'm holding a large size position in $RAD, been posting, they are outperforming and they still have a lot of room,...they are in the Vaccine game, with Testing and soon they will be vaccinating, when the supply arrives. I know that you that you were posting about..... $WBA.
- CraigReynolds: @champ $RAD $WBS $WBA Yes, you have been on the radar and correct dealing with $RAD ever since I joined SMM. Both these drug stores, I know inside and out. Built many of both in the good old days. They are in focus all the time with every changing health situation. The health industry will be changing again because of the administration change in the freebie attitude. Drug stores will profit. They get their cut.
- champ: @CraigReynolds $RAD....---- #Timings --- On $WBA, I never did any good with this stock, never had the proper Timing but that was a long time ago. Need timings, for most all swings, however positive #News-Works, for sure, News=Timings. However if a trader/investor has all 5-timings, Stock, positive Sector, positive Market, News-Timing-on-the-stock, with a chart....then that position-size, can be over-size,....back-up the truck. That happens......

The columnist (Al Root, about whom I know nothing) postulates that as the economy improves, institutional money will tend to swing from the largest cap stocks to those with lower price/earnings ratios, etc. That would be in line with the experience ... - kbrowe: $RAD Earnings this morning. Rite Aid Q4 Non-GAAP EPS of -$0.37 beats by $0.63; GAAP EPS of -$6.43. Revenue of $5.73B (+6.5% Y/Y) beats by $120M. Shares 7.04% PM. I have a long position way under water, and have lived through the $WBA asset sale and poor management years. I definitely learned a valuable lesson with this experience, though it was costly. They finally have a new management team with a vision, and am holding. I think there is a long term growth story here.
- wijimmy: @Forexpro $HD $LOW .. Add.. $COST, $BJ, $WMT, $TGT, $KR, $CVS, $WBA to list that are open also...
- kbrowe: From SA. Earnings spotlight, a trio of companies seeing spikes in demand for food products are due to report next week: Egg-producer Cal-Maine Foods $CALM on tap for March 30 Pantry loaders Conagra $CAG and McCormick $MKC both reporting on March 31 Lamb Weston $LW on April 1 Walgreens Boots Alliance $WBA Chewy $CHWY and CarMax $KMX on April 2 Constellation Brands $STZ on April 3
- spmeyers: @kbrowe $CALM $CAG $MKC $LW $WBA $CHWY $KMX $STZ I read that wholesale egg prices have risen a lot in may places; CALM might be a good bet
- phgruver: @spmeyers $CALM $CAG $MKC $LW $WBA $CHWY $KMX $STZ ...but this is the time of year when chickens just naturally start laying more eggs. That's why egg prices usually go down around Easter, the producers are buried in eggs! For reasons I don't totally understand, though, along with TP, there seems to have been a run on eggs as well.
- kbrowe: @Mikev200 $KEM Another thought is whether they need gov't regulary approval on the deal and it is still pending. I went through this a few years ago on the $RAD $WBA deal purchase of some sub-set of stores. It needed FTC approval (related to anti-trust), in which a decision was never published. In the meantime the world changed and the both companies had to re-negotiate.
- Mikev200: @kbrowe $KEM $RAD $WBA YES, exactly, NOT approved yet..….I hear ya, I was in $RAD also!....
- kbrowe: @Mikev200 $KEM $RAD $WBA I feel and share your pain with that. I had a long $RAD position from way below, and not having much experience with M&A, thought that all these deals go through as planned. I learned the hard way. Some times it's better to take the money and run with the profit as SMM is teaching me.
- Mikev200: @kbrowe $KEM $RAD $WBA yup, me too. Very nice profit from long term. When that deal started, I was like nice, even more upside, until I rode it waaaaaay back down. I need to watch my long term better. No way I should have rode it back down.
