- Wednesday, April 3, 1:07 PM Best Buy (BBY) and Target agree to end a partnership which saw Geek Squad employees inside stores in a pilot program. What's interesting is that the longer CEO Hubert Joly has been on the job, the less that is being said by execs about the Geek Squad expanding outside of Best Buy stores as a new service. 1 Comment [Consumer]
- Wednesday, March 27, 12:46 PM Best Buy (BBY -3.8%) slips lower after S&P Capital IQ cuts its rating on the retailer to Sell from Hold on a valuation call. 2 Comments [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, March 25, 9:18 AM Back to the future: The return of Richard Schulze to Best Buy (BBY) as Chairman Emeritus along with two of his nominees to the board is a good indication the founder will hold on to the large stake in the company he owns and will back a turnaround plan. If CEO Joly and Schulze are on the same page, analysts think the chances for a Best Buy revival look more promising. Shares of BBY +0.7% premarket to $22.92, marking their highest trading level in ten months. 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, March 25, 8:53 AM Best Buy (BBY) founder Richard Schulze returns to the company as Chairman Emeritus, announcing his support for CEO Hubert Joly's plans, but nominating Brad Anderson and Al Lenzmeier to the board. "I determined that the best way to support Best Buy would be to report in support of the initiative underway." Shares +1% premarket. Comment! [Consumer]
- Monday, March 25, 8:17 AM The parade of analyst adoration for Best Buy (BBY) continues with Barclays raising its price target on shares to $28 from $20. Many of the investment firm upgrades have been tied to confidence in CEO Hubert Joly's ability to streamline the big box retailer. BBY +1.1% premarket to $23.00. 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 20, 1:01 PM Best Buy's (BBY +4.2%) top exec says its Five Star electronics chain in China resigned to take another position. The move could be an early warning sign that the unit will be sold off with CEO Hubert Joly widely believed to be willing to divest global assets. 1 Comment [Consumer]
- Wednesday, March 20, 9:50 AM Why all the analyst love for Best Buy (BBY +2.5%)? Shares of the retailer have almost doubled since the start of the year as one investment after another turns bullish (Credit Suisse, JPMorgan, Goldman Sachs). The common theme is that a strong management team can lead another round of cost cutting and squeeze more profits out of online and mobile channels. 2 Comments [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 20, 6:49 AM Another investment firm is jumping on the Best Buy (BBY) bandwagon as Credit Suisse reinstates coverage on the retailer with an Outperform rating and $30 price target. Comment! [Consumer]
- Monday, March 18, 7:21 AM JPMorgan upgrades Best Buy (BBY) to an Overweight rating with a $29 price target. The action falls in line with a sudden return to favor of the retailer to Street analysts. BBY +0.3% premarket. Comment! [Consumer]
- Wednesday, March 13, 8:44 AM More on Retail Sales: Two months into the year and retail categories look reasonably strong compared to estimates with the exception of electronics (BBY, RSH, CONN) and department stores (JWN, M, DDS, SHLD, KSS) which are running below last year's pace of sales. Improved results in the automobile and sporting goods categories (guns) were no surprise, but building material & garden (HD, LOW) looks slightly better than anticipated, according to analysts. Comment! [U.S. Economy, Consumer]
- Tuesday, March 12, 6:59 AM Goldman Sachs jump back on board with Best Buy (BBY), reinstating a Buy rating to go along with a $25 price target on shares. It's not a sector call, with the firm lowering its rating on RadioShack (RSH) to a Sell rating with a lowly $2.75 PT. Comment! [Consumer]
- Monday, March 11, 11:30 AM Best Buy (BBY +0.3%) plans to open a Pacific Kitchen store-within-a-store at 18 to 25 locations as it continues to see appliances as a way to take ground on margins. The appliances category has been a winner for Best Buy with sales up at a refreshing double-digit pace. 2 Comments [Consumer]
- Monday, March 11, 8:45 AM What to like about Best Buy (BBY): A bullish take on the embattled retailer from Piper Jaffray focuses on the "substantial" free cash flow and attractive valuation in play. The firm sees more than just a slice-and-dice story at Best Buy, with the potential for sales and margin improvement also in the mix. BBY +1.2% premarket. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, March 11, 7:06 AM Piper Jaffay upgrades Best Buy (BBY) to Overweight from Neutral. A new price target of $26 reps 28% upside for shares. BBY +1% premarket to $20.37. (Last week: Jefferies ups its rating on BBY Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 6, 7:04 AM Jefferies upgrades Best Buy (BBY) to Buy with an improved price target of $24.

- Friday, March 1, 9:18 AM Best Buy (BBY) turned down a $1B minority investment proposal from three P-E firms, according to Reuters.

billddrummer: Looking less likely by the day. Financing is reluctant because of weaker fundamentals and higher leverage.
