Electronics Boutique
Article Abstract:
Electronics Boutique is a retailer of video games which leads in the United Kingdom market and which has a US mentor with a stake of 25% in the market. Market conditions have improved and the company should also benefit from the possibility of expansion abroad, though the internet or through new stores. There is some concern that store saturation could be a problem in the United Kingdom, but there are other ways of expanding. The company's stocks are recommended although their price has risen.
