The way we do capital allocation is that we start with capital investments in our core businesses. Our warehouses and our store network are our priority. In 2022 we invested $620 million in our network DCs. That was a record. This year we're going to invest $800 million throughout our broader DCs network, a record level for our company. That's our priority.
Once all these projects are allocated, then we return some cash to the owners of the business. Whether it's a dividend policy and if there's.... We have been increasing the dividends to return cash to shareholders. As I said in my introductory remarks, we have to compete for customers in town but we also compete for capital. We have to reward the owners of the business.
I think it's the right balance that we're trying to achieve.
