It appears, with hindsight (who doesn't love follow-up reading investment theses?), Express could of hired George Clooney (like he'd put his name on yet another boring B&M circling the drain, not that they could afford him) and it would not have been enough to put Humpty-Dumpty back together again.

On the bright-side of life, EXPRQ went up 200% on October 14, 2024. It surged from 0.02 to 0.03 cents. Morningstar's quant garbage rating puts EXPRQ at a "fair value" of 0.07 cents.

Hope you applied the In-and-Out Burger philosophy if you followed you own conclusion. If so, then you maybe made a tasty hamburger meal out the "bull-case."
