You are wrong, it is calculated predatory behaviour. Supermarkets are bad corporate citizens. They have too much power, they exercise that power to the specific disadvantage of others (fuel cycle as an example), they are greedy and they don't care about the adverse impact of their actions as long as turnover increases.

Happy New Year
