What if Macys shut all its stores and sold off the real estate and bought warehouses and became only a online store.. which position would be gone?
Which positions may not be there next year?
I am referring to the thread about OVM position and I absolutely agree with the person who thinks it is questionable whether this position will be around in 2022. My opinion is that it most likely will not, but I am interested in what other positions... — read more
