I would not worry about the 600 closings, Thats only a few blocks worth of stores in New York. They are closing the poor performers but still building and opening stores in strong market areas. The closings will serve to make them a stronger company and there shares rose .72 as a result of the announcement. Market saturation was the biggest reason for the closing and the pinch on gas is giving everyone a reality check on their spending habits. If you are looking to open a coffee shop I would suggest diversifying. We have a local Bikes & Java, Books and Coffee is an obvious one but I would Niche it with rare old books and first covers, or something off the wall.... Tikis and Java served in tiki coffe mugs.
