Those experiences indicate smaller stores with lower rent which will likely be open the longest.
Any stores in the imminent closing status are mostly finished packing up what's going to be sent for clearance elsewhere and at the same time clearing what's not yet packed up at 50% off. Most of those should close within a week or two. The "clearance stores" will probably be larger, and in larger malls. These will likely be closed later. But at some point all stores will be cleared and closed, probably later this year and depending on how many of the leases are bought up, by whom, and how soon they're wanted. Amazon, Sprint and T-Mobile have all been mentioned as potential buyers for leases they may find desirable.
