Wonder why Barnes and Noble (BKS) stock is going up. It sure fell a long ways earlier this year. So, why would it suddenly go up without any news? Man, the stock market is crazy.

Might be because a buyer is accumulating shares for an acquisition of the entire co.

Who could buy out Barnes and Noble? Their nooks are doing well and their ebook sales are pretty good.
That being said, the value of a companies stock is not measure of performance of said company.

Border’s is shutting down = less competition.
Just bought 4 chairs, 3 tables, 2 rolling DVD display cases and a compact LCD kiosk monitor from Border’s fixtures sale.

I would guess it is either shorts covering or working it’s way to arbitrage price on rumor of buyout. Not sure why someone would buy it though..??..
