Finally, big box electronics retailer Best Buy Co., Inc. (NYSE:BBY) jumped 4.6% after the deadline for co-founder Richard Schulze to take the company private has passed. This means that, rather than relying on a white knight like Schulze to step in and save shareholders, Best Buy and its current CEO, Hubert Joly, are going to focus on the continued implementation of turnaround measures. In that regard, Best Buy Co., Inc. (NYSE:BBY)’s prime focus will be on ending “showrooming,” whereby consumers would test products in its stores, and then purchase on Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) or any other Internet-based retailer that consistently undercut Best Buy’s in-store prices. Best Buy’s new platform, which focuses on mobile gadgets and allows associates to price match, should help swing the pendulum back in its direction — at least for the time being.
