Our opinions differ greatly. I see Rite Aid as a dying company. Having their hands tied by the "merger" for the past two years did not help matters. While others were free to progress with future plans, Rite Aid was in a holding pattern. That will haunt them, as will their mountain of debt. Rite Aid's only hope is a buyout, but who wants them now? The speculation that Walgreens wants this deal to die at the FTC's hands has some merit. It gets them off the hook while saving face. Rite Aid's only hope is Amazon, but it really is the opposite of everything they like in an acquisition target.

When excessive debt gets "managed" the outcome is never good for common equity.
