I have been inaccurately predicting this for a few years (with a variety of big box stores/ many location stores).

I think what I was most wrong about is AMZN thinks a lot about the geographic overlap of their customers and where they will shop. That is why the Whole Foods purchase was so brilliant. Both the overlap of wallets shopping in at both AMZN (prime) and WF.

I wonder how well Sear's store footprint fits with the AMZN customer base.

With wealth and income gap divide, there not much room to bet big on the non-rich part of town. Find the Whole Foods and and Apple Store and Nordstroms and that's the mall or shopping area that will support higher profit margins.
