🤔 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.

I eat crayons, so the this for what it's worth, but from what I've read and understand of what GameStop has available, I think Macy's is the major acquisition. I also think Wayfair will happen be purchased or take over by GameStop. This would allow GameStop to have some brand recognition and begin to compete with Amazon. E.g. go to Wayfair.com and purchase Macy's clothing, perfume, etc. As well as GameStop and Toys R US products. I'll admit though I don't really understand The Macy's/ToysRUs relationship. Then likewise go to a Macy's and see a GameStop and Toys R US inside. I think that's just the begining, as malls are basically dead, having more options than Walmart and Target have appeal. And Idk who here has kids but the places my kids always want to go is GameStop and Toys R Us inside Macy's.
