Bar1080,
I just wanted to respond to your post. I am sure a respected investor like yourself knows the number of jobs saved is actually a VERY low estimate. When "jobs saved" is being reported, they are reporting on employees and not the many, many collateral jobs such as seasonal/temporary, contractors, vendors and a host of others.
Jobs does not even take into effect the impact to the local economies where a story closing can have a huge negative impact. I do not own Sears stock but I am thrilled for stock holders, employees, US economy and everyone and thing affected by what this reprieve offers. It is inconceivable to me that anyone with a shred of humanity is not happy about this. I am sure you agree. With that said, shorts may/will get hurt but they went into the situation with their eyes open.
GOOD LUCK TO SEARS
