Did you know?

Bed Bath & Beyond has 1,087 job openings on Linkedin, including 2 executive roles. In its job listings, the company mentions it is "in the midst of an enterprise-wide transformation" and rebuilding a "digital-first shopping experience". That doesn't sound like a shuttering company to us!

T+2 Settlement

Today is the second trading day after last Fridays close. That means the the stock options that were in the money on Friday and became exercised will need to be delivered today. That could put some additional upward pressure on the stock today.
