Sears – Report of layoffs by Seeking Alpha disputed

A published report Thursday said Sears Holdings is laying off about 6,000 workers as it closes 110 stores within the next few months, many before Christmas, according to Seeking Alpha, a content service for financial markets…

Spokesman Howard Riefs said “the reported store count and list of closures isn’t accurate.” He specified that one of the stores on the list of closings, a Sears and Auto Center at Washington Square Mall in Evansville, Ind., is not slated to close. Seeking Alpha reporter Mitch Nolen, who wrote the report, said in an email that he has corrected that entry and that the Sears at Washington Square Mall in Indianapolis is closing, not in Evansville.
