No Turn On Red

It is now reported the Circuit City has failed to find a buyer willing to take over their store operations and instead has reached a deal with a liquidator. The electronics retailer filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in November and closed 155 stores in Q4 of 2008. They will now close the remaining 567 stores in the United States. Adding to the growing US job loss numbers, up to 35,000 people will be affected by these store closings.
