    More than a year ago Cramer said he liked Odland at ODP, but he would still choose Staples stock over Office Depot. He got that one right. Reply

    ODP is finished. Have you walked into a store lately? Empty. Few employees, no customers, zero deals, product thrown around with no organization. If you still own stock you should be officially banned from the stock market.

    Upper level management is a joke, I know from first hand experience. My job changed earlier this year so I left the company, clearly a great career move, I knew it then and only now does everyone else.

    This is a well understood trading technique. I have software for back-testing and buying the biggest decliners at an interim or final bottom works a huge percentage of the time for a quick buck. Reply

    Perhaps the more appropriate title would be "A 'Buy the OVERSOLD' Rally"? But then, I guess anything slightly optimistic just wouldn't fit in here on SA, would it? *sigh* Reply

    I work for the Office Depot BSD group in Canada.

    We are newly acquired, being purchased in June of 2007.
    (we we're called Axidata Inc. at the time, privately owned, by a group of 16 shareholders, which was the whole management team)

    Knowing what we know now, and seeing what's unfolding, do you experts believe that OD would be interested in selling off it's Canadian BSD division?
    I know of a decent majority of employees that wouldn't mind buying back the company, and get out of this Office Depot turmoil!

    Most employees fear for their jobs, as HQ comes in, cuts out jobs without analysing or questionning present management....
    shoot first, ask questions later type of management just doesn't work for Canada, and it would be probably best if OD would get out of Canada, and sell back the business to those who built it from the ground up.

    Odland, time to go pal.
    and give back your 14 millions dollars in bonuses....
    you don't deserve them.
    your employees who actually do all the heavy lifting and hard work, those who actually make the sales come in every month, THOSE are the people who should share your 14 millions in bonus.......

    4-5 index etfs probably would do it as well. don't tell me you can keep track and properly analyze and follow all of your holdings. way too many.
    zero value added.

    The Lastest News From The Grimm Reaper:
    OFFICE DEPOT
    Dateline: Florida
    Office Depot stock has fallen over 8% today, just before noon EST.
    Analysis indicates that there will now be significant degrading of the companies value in the next 90 days.
    OFFICE DEPOT needs to make bold moves to re-assure the investment community, such moves would include the sacking of CEO Steve Odland as well as BSD President Steve Schmidt; closing of all non-producing stores; hiring an out side accounting group to work with FLORIDA investigators to resolve the questions surrounding their government contracts; and refunding unilatterally, signiicant dollars to the numerous GOVERNMENT accounts that have been overcharged. Unless OFFICE DEPOT, take these types of bold steps, the investigations, in FLORIDA and CALIFORNIA, could result in irreparable damage to the OFFICE DEPOT brand name. Over all out look for 2008 is not good, even with bold action.
