            Someone should sue them, then! Let’s see how he feels when someone lobs a law bomb at Loblaws’ Bob Loblaw.

            It doesn’t matter what their profit is if their margin is only 2%.

              It’s 4% for Loblaws, and when the profit is billions it does matter.

                It doesn’t, because you still have a tiny margin. Get one bad year and your business will be wiped out.

                  Not when the profit is billions, Loblaws could run at at a sizeable loss for the next decade and still be fine.

                    No, it can’t. 4% loss will wipe out everything they’ve earned. That’s the problem with low margins.
