Experts are generally positive about Empire Company (EMP.A-T) due to the successful Safeway acquisition, the impact of inflation on food pricing, and the growth of the Canadian population. However, it is noted that the company has underperformed this year. The valuation is considered to be much more attractive, but there is confusion around the company's structure in comparison to Loblaw. Some experts also believe that Loblaw offers better value, exposure to cities, and better efficiencies. Overall, the consensus is mixed, with some experts finding value in the stock while others believe there are better options available.
Defensive. Owned it a while ago, but Loblaw offers better value, the Shoppers chain, exposure to cities, and better efficiencies. Neither pays a good dividend, but Empire's chart looks attractive now for the short term.
Very expensive, trading up near maximums. Be patient, let things fall to something that will give you a better rate of return.

Turned around Safeway acquisition. Inflation has helped food pricing. Canadian population growth. All the grocery chains own the best locations. Underperformed this year. Valuation much more attractive. Has always logged Loblaw, perhaps because EMP.A has a more confusing structure.
