When you see Private Equity buy a business, I can almost guarantee that it won’t exist for more than 2 yrs. They drain it for everything they can.

But why are they selling to them in the first place, thats the part I dont get! If the CEO of these companies makes this decision, then I dont feel sorry their company went bankrupt.

P.E. Did the same thing to Red Lobster as well. Drove a perfectly healthy company into the ground.

I mean it’s not like Toys R Us was doing good before PE came along. If it was why would they sellout? Stopping stuff that doesn’t work and recycling the parts is the most efficient use of capital.

Guh my head hurts. No, Toys R Us physical locations should not exist if people aren’t buying the product. No, it’s not profitable to tank a business on purpose like she says. That’s not a thing
