This company remains the king of dollar stores. Back in 2010 the theme under a “new normal” and “post-new normal” that we expected to remain was the rise of the dollar stores against Wal-Mart and other giants. Dollar stores have continued to reach up beyond the one-dollar mark, and this trend will remain.
