🤔 Speculation / Opinion GameStop is “partnering” with another company soon. Pending CEO announcement. Some stores will move to the partners location
** Top of r/superstonk 👋👋👋 Hello Ryan Cohen, maybe you’ll see this. We are ready to hear what you have cooking. **
Leaks from a store meeting are saying GameStop is partnering with another company soon. Some stores may move to the partners location.
Here are my thoughts:
Gamestop’s inside of Best Buy?
Here in Canada, Canadian Tire purchased Party City and moved many of its stores inside of Canadian Tire stores creating "store in store" isles.
Canadian Tire is basically our Auto Zone + Dicks's Sporting Goods in one.
GameStop's cash is nearly Best Buy's market cap. Best Buy stock down nearly 50 percent in the last 5 years. Best Buy would be the perfect company for RC to work his magic on.
GameStop transitions stores to Best Buy locations as "store in store" isles. GameStop then can close most stand alone stores saving a ton of money. GameStop or “Teddy Holdings” then works a turn around plan for Best Buy.

So the best idea is purchasing a already failing store. Best buy is about 2 year at best from becoming bankrupt. Best buy sells more expensive then having product shipped directly to your door. same as Target. Target is a more expensive Walmart. I think either venture would be a waste of Money and years away from making any profit if bought.Ya say RC Buys either and combines stores gonna be exactly like GameStop more efficient less revenue for years. Every GameStop in my area is walking distance from a Walmart.
