Q: So sorry, I asked this question yesterday but got the stock ticker wrong! It's not Winpak that I am interested in, it is Winmark on the nasdaq code
I'm thinking of investing in this company. Considering the slow down in the economy, consumer high debt in Canada and possible upcoming recession, I think this is one of the few consumer discretionary companies that might not be too affected. Your thoughts on this company, please. They are consignment stores.Many thanks for your great service! Jen
