Meh. I posted this in another thread but, maybe it's just me, but these goofy Forbes articles he writes never do anything for me. I mean, it doesn't give us any news that we aren't already aware of, and if there is any news, it's usually too late because we already discussed it here. It seems like mostly philosophical nonsense about his nostalgia for B&M retail, but no hard facts or new information. I don't understand the point (other than generating clicks for Forbes of course).

There are 52 non-liquidating Sears stores, and 86 total stores, if you don't count the 8 small-format Sears stores.

86 is a correct count of open, non-liquidating stores if you exclude the 8 small-format Sears stores.

It says 86 stores...

"86 to be exact, including about 52 Sears locations and 34 under the Kmart name, although some sources show slightly different totals. According to sources who are monitoring the count, using retail leasing websites, as many as 30 of these stores are available for leasing or are in the process of closing."
