You are correct and that was my point. Change is inevitable and necessary. We should not hold on the the past for fear of change or old times sake. Montgomery Ward was #1, then Sears, then Kmart, then Walmart, now Prime and home delivery are moving in. I remember thinking Jack in the Box drive up would never work, now 70% of of fast food is drive up, and now the recent twist of call in-pick up.

Enclosed malls were wonderful for years, but Sears and Penny's could not foresee their coming demise. Anyone want to put stock in outlet malls these days? They were huge 15 years ago.

Some change fails, some works great and survives for a while. Katie's is gone just like the soda fountain at the drug store. Get over it and move on.

Sort of like me, I used to work ok, now my stock keeps sinking to new lows. Don't invest in futures on me.
