The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

seekingalpha.com - Dollar general strong earnings compounder facing growth ceiling

I thought this was a worthwhile and balanced piece. Interesting that the prior DG CEO is now at Dollar Tree. Excerpt:

'Dollar General has been a strong earnings compounder, even outperforming Visa and Google, with a 10x increase in EPS at a 20% CAGR since 2010.

The company's volatile performance includes a 150% price rise followed by a decline, raising questions about its future prospects.

Its business model offers a unique value proposition to low-income shoppers in rural/troubled areas, but faces limitations in store growth potential and renewed competition from Family Dollar.'
