      Comments by management today on inventories:

      "Total inventories were approximately $207 million at the end of 2007, which is about $23 million higher than at this
      time last year. This represents an increase of 12.7% in total inventory compared with last year, which is relatively
      consistent with the 10.5% sales increase in '07. The trend of increase is consistent with our discussions in prior
      quarters, whereby we stated that we expected year-over-year total inventories to increase in the single digits or in the
      teens in '07. The inventory growth has been to support new stores and to build inventory in certain core categories. In
      addition, if you review the past two years, our sales have increased approximately 30% from 2005 to 2007, while our
      inventories have grown 17% in the same period."

      Bed Bath & Beyond Below $30: Is the Housing Market to Blame?
      I also love BBBY. It is truly a great well managed company.

      But you c'ant compare BBBY's slowdown situation with the housing stocks retrack situation because both corrected their stock prices also differently. Housing stocks are below their book value and BBBY is in its lowest PE levels ever...

      You c'an also compare the yield of an ROE (20%) with a 10-year T-bond yield because they are simply not comparable. They would be comparable if you could buy the company for its book value. The right comparison is between the 10-year T-bond and BBBY's earnings yield, which is 7.33%.

      What Is Nokia Thinking? Navteq Bid Makes No Sense
      What d'ont you get? Nokia has the tecnologie to incorporate GPS in its phones. It needs the maps. Navteq provides them. Simple!

      I'm loving their services expansion. Do you think people will carry a phone, a music player and a GPS? People will want all in one machine.
