Fenetic FOMO

I guess I know now why the FOMO was so strong in the past week. See what has happened to those stocks with the company on the verge of bankruptcy.

Just mind-blowing and unbelievable!!   Let's see if this feneticality will continue next week. For now, enjoy the long weekend!

****************************************************

The retail disaster released its third-quarter earnings report Tuesday. It featured...

  • A 33% decline in net sales over the previous year
  • A $100.7 million accounting loss in the quarter
  • Negative operating cash flow of $307.6 million
  • The clear failure of its turnaround plan

These abysmal results practically guarantee that Bed Bath & Beyond will soon go bankrupt. It's incapable of making money. And it's rapidly burning up the little bit of cash it still holds.

In fact, just over a week ago, the company itself admitted it's on borrowed time.

And yet... Bed Bath & Beyond's stock soared as much as 300% this week!

Money-losing used-car seller Carvana (CVNA) was up about 83% before pulling back today. 

Party-supply retailer Party City (PRTY) was up as much as around 130% this week. 

Video-game retailer GameStop (GME) climbed as much as 25% this week. And movie-theater chain AMC Entertainment (AMC) rose roughly 30% through yesterday's close.
