Safeway Inc.(SWY)

Apr 18, 2008
Retail has been under pressure for over a year. Food retailers have been under even more pressure. Food prices are rising very rapidly. Grocery business is a micro margin one. With increasing costs, it is very difficult to pass this on to the consumer.

Acquired shares when they acquired Ashton. Paid a bit less than where it is now. His target is $1.85. This is a diamond play and the company is based on discovery. They have to keep finding things. Have deep pockets available. They keep issuing shares creating some dilution. Likes management. Thinks it has good upside.

Over the last couple of months, analysts have been quite positive based on results they have been having. It turns out that a gift card business they had on the side had been contributing a great deal to their revenues. This part is probably worth $8 a share. Not much risk.

Just reported its quarterly results and it was a blow out number and the stock rallied very sharply. They seem to be able to effectively compete with Wal-Mart.

Supermarket chains have had a tough time because Wal-Mart (WMT-N) became a bigger player in the food area at lower prices. The worst is over and this one will probably do okay but not his favourite.

One of the biggest supermarket chains in the US and is also a major player in Canada. Stock has done well recently. Prefers Kroger (KR-N)which is the only supermarket chain that did not lose market share to Wal-Mart (WMT-N).
