I would not diss Rite Aid. Their numbers are bad. CVS and WAG net profit is around 3%, while RAD gets ~1% net profit (a lot of room to improve). Their stock jumped from the lowest 0.20 cents in 2009 to over $6 now. They are reporting a profitable net income every quarter now. Although I will not personally buy RAD stock (high PE - overpriced territory), the company will only gets better because they are so behind their competition. RAD is not featured in SDN more often because they are not as efficient as CVS/WAG who hang their employees dry and squeeze every juice out of them (read: work environment probably is not as bad). That just means they can cut more expenses, improve their efficiency to get their numbers up in par with their competition. Good for shareholders, not so good for rphs who work for them.
