for example, if jeans had a 50% margin and a t-shirt has a 70% margin and a sweater has a 68% margin, you'll add those all together and come up with a blended average -- somewhere around 62%. why is the inventory so anemic? lady: well, i think we've been cash-poor. i have been trying to pay old debt and buy new inventory. -lemonis: at the same time. -lady: at the same time. amy: our stacks used to be, you know -- every single one was to the top, and i had two back rooms full of these. lemonis: like, there's a whole shelf that's empty. amy: that used to be an entire wall full of denim. lemonis: so you used to have inventory just stacked. -amy: yeah. -lemonis: and what changed? lady: well, the business changed in the past couple of years, mainly 'cause i opened too many stores too fast. lemonis: how many did you open? lady: at the height of it, i believe we had 13 stores. lemonis: and how many stores left today? lady: we have three stores now. lemonis: what happened? lady: well, new orleans -- i don't think i understood the market. and i never could figure denver out. lemonis: but they

the pies come with a huge 80% to 90% margin, but the retail stuff, it drags along a 20% to 25% margin every square foot that we utilize to sell low-margin product isn't gonna help us make money. what i need to do is to convert that space into faster-moving products like pies. so here's what we need to do, box it up and get it out. >> all right, box it up, get it out. >> yup. >> no, we haven't made a final decision on that. have you done your demographics on people who want to come in and get slushies and pie bars and key lime soda? >> i'm gonna get you whatever you need for amnesia. remember what i said, if we don't make it, we're not selling it. we all agreed on that. >> tami, you don't think people should have opportunity to buy these things? >> not here. it's all this same [bleep] that they have everywhere. >> i don't, uh--i don't agree with that. >> if we don't make it, we don't sell it. period, end of discussion. i mean, we need this to get done, like, today. >> where are we gonna put it? >> we're gonna liquidate it, but we need to start-- >> but why don't we leave it on the shel

in return, we get pretty reasonable margins during we are allowed to earn those margins.t thele say i margin but i will not invest in the research risk that underpins that business model, that is not sustainable. drug pricing has been a major issue in the u.s. in recent months and has even become a political issue. what hasus how you see been going on lately with drug pricing is potentially impacting your ability to price drugs going forward in the u.s.? been on the record pretty widely for the last few years saying that i think that we need to think hard about where this pricing debate is going. on the one hand, drugs remain a small fraction of total health care costs, only 10% is the pharmaceutical business, but everybody is talking about drug pricing. thee's no transparency tween the list price and what is actually being paid. there are enormous discounts. medicare gets a mandate of 23.8% discount. the government pays 76% of the list price before it starts. my company, i'll price inflation at the net level over the last five years has averaged around 2%, so we've had a

they have higher margins. we're looking at a company that two, three, four years from now will have more content at higher margins with higher growth and lots of cash flow. >> does that mean you'll be out of the textbook business? >> the ingram business we did puts us out of the textbook ownership business. two years ago, a your ago we were using $100 million a we're to buy textbooks and then get a return on them. now ingram uses their money we're we're just a reseller. we take a 20% commission. our gross profits are 6% to 25. we've become an offerer of them as opposed to an owner of them, which means no risk, no use of capital. we close the warehouse. we're just -- we're going to be pure digital company by the end of 2016, and i think faebl people will take a look and realize when you look at the growth rates, you look at the margins, you look at the potential for cash flow, this is going to be one of the biggest companies in the education space if we continue to execute. >> 5%. will get your attention today.

margins are downward trajectory across retail. only from a price competition standpoint but because of shipping costs. and labor costs in the store. >> now you set off all the alarm bells for investors where is the solid stream of profits in your view. >> it's only through market share gains and revenue. it's a fight to the bottom on margins. simon, i think that retail investors expect that. it is very difficult, let alone -- throw expand margins off the table. even to maintain margins is not expected -- not this quarter. probably not over the next year or two across retail. >> susan, do you agree? we have to wait a year or two to get done with promotions that will help retail margins and get rid of the pressure from higher labor costs? >> i think it's different in the specialty retail space. because they went through a rough past two years, they were the first to clean up inventory. even with warmer weather, we are seeing reduced inventory. it's coming off very low lows, but this year a lot of retailers out there such as american

he expects no growth in 2016 profit margins.ce holdings says profits will be on the lower end of the range forecast. it beat weaker demands for next year. this faces additional headwinds. let's check out burglary. nejra: first-half profits beat estimates. this affords comes after burglary -- this of course comes after burglary issued warnings -- weaker spending by chinese consumers. we saw the share price dropped the most in three years. better than expected earnings to date seem to come off the back of cost cuts. christopher bailey is cutting bonuses. consolidating products under one label. all of this to try and fight the slowing demand for luxury goods in china. the idea that all of the product being under one label will simplify things for shoppers. make things more efficient and perhaps boost sales. is in thechallenge china story. nejra: the external environment remains challenging and uncertain. it mentioned key markets. one of those for burberry is china. it is any weaker position than some of its peers in the luxury mark

the company is also talking about margins.ikely, this would have an impact on the share prices of the after our trading. at thegoing to look fitbit results when cory johnson joins us later on. right now it looks like shares are down for fitbit marginally. yes, it looks like it spikes higher and then it goes down. joe: there is something, binky, you talk about this move out of stocks. but here we are looking at the stock market that is almost back to an all-time high. how do youion is, take this information and apply it to investment decisions? -- binky: sure, i mean, the simple point is coming you don't just want to look at demand, you want to look at demand as well as supply. years, thereseven has been a lot of buyback and on a net basis, about $450 billion on an nual rate, and that is $9 billion a week. so if you only focus on the demand side, it is actually still positive. the reason why i bring this up is that people look at the u.s. equity market right now in comparison to the middle of august and it masks the fact that t

we look at margin and return on investment capital. if you look at the fundamentals of spirit right now, jim, they are stronger than they have been. we are carrying more customers than ever before. our assumable market is bigger than before. the costs are lower and getting even lower so the reality is we are still -- we still have the growth we had before and the growth is acreating greatly and the company is putting up good numbers. we know the multiple would be back. right now we think the people are over weighted on the one unit revenue metric for the detriment of missing the growth and cost story. >> that's a good point. i have seen retailers, for instance, try to explain how they are making so much more money than everybody else, but the same store sales may not be that good. the truth is your model is so different that it isn't -- you're really not making up a reason to buy the stock. you have a very specific model that comes to a new city and it doesn't take necessarily travellers away from business. it adds to travellers entire

romney won the independent vote by a five-point margin in 2012. romney won the independent vote by five percentage points, but among self-described moderates obama wanted by 15-point margin. and so i kind of look at both of those groups, independent and moderate. and so is there -- obama one without winning more independent votes but did it because his party had an advantage in terms of party. a lot of conservatives did not vote for romney and that route press the republican number. at the same time as she had done what it would take to jack up to what extent might he have lost the independent vote. this whole exercise, you haveexercise, you have to be able to walk and chew gum at the same time. you have to be able to hold your base while reaching in and grabbing as many votes as you possibly can from the middle, whether it is the partisan middle, independent, or ideological middle moderate and keep in mind that a great number. >> in my other notes. the decisive factor. 29 percent as a vision for the future. and romney one that group by nine-point

maybe because people are concerned about margins coming in a tad. but i have to tell you, there is still a lot of game left in the allergan and pfizer story and potentially somebody else. >> i'm with gee, you have to stay a -- away from this. you look at the debt. there is so much debt at valeant. this is a levered company. more bad news, that will happen for a while. >> i have a position in valeant but a put against it so i'm protected on the bad side. but i would give a headline to the deutsche newspaper where they say every stock has its price but timing is everything. so when you look at the stock, they were bearish in terms of the sustainability of the pricing strategy and the m&a but said at this level substantial skepticism is priced into the business model which we talked about and the potential that the pricing has to change. so valuation-wise, this company is very attractive here. >> you would step in even with this investigation? >> i said i have a long position with a put against it to the down side which is the only way to play it. >> s

we had cutbacks in the margin. month said they were going to cut back, or have cut back production, for example, in zambia. we need other high-cost producers to throw in the towel and say we are throwing down this mine for a year or two to lead the market rebound. that has toomething suffer to get to that place of realism? simon: they do. that is one of the problems. companies aren't suffering. we talked about glencore being beaten up. it still makes money. it is still profitable. the concerns are in the future and whether it can service its debt. other big mining companies are profitable. their margins are increasingly thin, some will have to cut their dividends, but a lot of the big ones are not feeling the pain yet. david: matt, i think you have something? is seasonal. this with commodities, looking at -- stephanie: i hate this argument. you some truthow in the form of a bloomberg chart . a lot of clients love this chart and mail and to me, how did you get that? type s a g and click on the heat map. 2015, it is
