If you have been a reader of 24/7 Wall St. for very long, you have seen this coming. Our only surprise as of now is that the company did not try to protect its assets while it still had hard assets to play with.
Our other belief is that the RadioShack creditors would rather see RadioShack fold so they can make more money off the company’s remaining assets than as a turnaround. That will be very hard to prove ahead of time, but that is our belief. After all, the creditors did not allow RadioShack to close the massive number of 1,100 or so stores it was seeking to close — and it seems more than safe to assume that RadioShack is not about to get a new saving product line that will prove to be profitable.
