Over on CAPS, 16 of the 34 All-Star members who have rated Winn-Dixie -- some 47% -- believe the stock will underperform the S&P 500 going forward. These bears include callitabanana and bocards, both of whom are ranked in the top 20% of our community.

In December, callitabanana wrote that the bear case all comes down to cash (or lack thereof): "Great turn around story and groceries are a good defensive area. Price is too high, however, and the cash flows could be better."

In a more recent pitch from last week, bocards writes that the stock's problems go way beyond price:

The only way stores like this can compete with Wal-Mart is too have way better customer service. Right now that just isnt the case. Also, why shop for groceries there when you can go to Wal-Mart and do one stop shopping for less. Here in the Southeast going to Wla-Mart is part of the culture now....I just do not see Winn Dixie being able to take down Wal-Mart or Target (NYSE:TGT). Nice stores only last so long....then what declare bankruptcy again and remodel some more?
