- Monday, May 6, 9:23 AM Pfizer (PFE) plans to start selling Viagra online, according to an AP report. The initiative could serve as a test run by Big Pharma over disrupting its current model to look at online distribution for treatments viewed as more embarrassing to buy in person. Drugstore operators (CVS, WAG, RAD) will be watching the development very carefully. PFE -0.1% premarket. 2 Comments [Healthcare, Consumer]
- Tuesday, April 30, 10:04 AM A combined read of Redbook and ICSCS-Goldman's data on chain store sales indicates the late start to the spring season could take its toll on apparel sellers. Despite the choppy start to Q2, chain-store sales are still heading for a 2%-3% gain during the month compared to last year. Possible April winners: Drugstores [Walgreen (WAG), Rite Aid (RAD), CVS Caremark (CVS)] and wholesale clubs [Costco (COST), PriceSmart (PSMT), BJ's Wholesale]. Comment! [Consumer, U.S. Economy]
- Friday, April 12, 10:22 AM Rite Aid (RAD +6.1%) shoots higher again after recording a tidy post-earning gain yesterday. Today, Raymond James added to the enthusiasm by chiming in with an upgrade to Outperform from Perform. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]

- Thursday, April 4, 12:51 PM Health experts forecast this season's allergy season will be extremely harsh. As a result, drug store chains such as Rite Aid (RAD -3.7%), CVS Caremark (CVS +1.9%), and Walgreen (WAG +0.4%) are expecting a mild bounce in April store traffic due to the development. (Previous on March sales: WAG, RAD) Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, April 4, 8:38 AM Rite Aid (RAD) announces same store sales fell 2% in March as an improvement in front-end store sales couldn't offset a drop in pharmacy sales due to the introduction of new generic drugs. The retailer says its prescription count at comparable stores was up 3% Y/Y. Comment! [Consumer]
- Thursday, March 28, 9:18 AM Look for a new report from Consumer Reports on the cost of prescription drugs at retail chains to create some buzz. Analysis by the publication shows that consumers can save as much as $100 a month by comparison shopping. Costco (COST) came in the low end of the scale for generic drug prices while CVS Caremark (CVS) was the highest. Drugstore chains (WAG, RAD) could face increasing pricing pressure with big box retailers more willing to use low prices at their pharmacies as a traffic driver. 4 Comments [Consumer, Healthcare]
- Friday, March 1, 7:14 AM Drugstore chains (WAG, CVS, RAD) continue to push further into healthcare to make up for lagging prescription drug sales. The latest development is an initiative by Rite Aid to open 58 stores which have in-store clinics where customers can interact with a doctor using a Web cam. Customers in Baltimore, Boston, Philadelphia, and Pittsburgh can pay $45 for a 10-minute consult with a doctor via a PC. 6 Comments [Consumer, Healthcare]

RAD is getting beaten up and for good reason. No earnings, lots of debt, and not big enough to add value for WAG or CVS. It sucks - View all 1 replies
