The company keeping me up most at night is Big Lots. Is this a buying opportunity or death trap? [mailbag]
If BIG can get through this rough patch (no guarantee; the stock is not without risk), they could eventually earn $8.00 assuming operating margins return to 6%. The downside is zero; the upside is easily 5-10x. [trade]
While GAMCO underwhelms with its ESG bona fides, Crocs overwhelms with its HEYDUDE acquisition. R.I.P. Olivia Newton-John. [trades]

Supply chain issues, labor shortages and price inflation have created a hand full of year-end bargains. [trades]
