    Overstock.com (OSTK) Stock Tumbled Even After An Insider Buying

    Overstock.com, Inc. (NASDAQ: OSTK) experienced a notable decline of 9.55% during the weekend session, ultimately concluding the trading period at a valuation of $13.93. This reduction came even after an insider buying.

    The director of Overstock.com, Lemonis Marcus, expressed his faith in the business by purchasing 40,293 OSTK shares on Friday. This transaction took place at a price of $14.79 per share, amounting to a total investment of $595,933. Following this, the director’s total OSTK shares now amount to 147,293.

    Overstock.com, currently operating as Bed Bath & Beyond, is set to undergo a significant name change. This transformation will occur on November 6, 2023, when the company will adopt the name Beyond, Inc. Alongside this corporate rebranding, OSTK will move its stock listing from the Nasdaq Global Market (NASDAQ) to the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and change its ticker symbol from OSTK to BYON.

    Following this name change, Beyond, Inc. will continue its furniture and home furnishings e-commerce activities under the Bed Bath & Beyond brand. On June 28, 2023, Overstock.com, Inc. acquired the Bed Bath & Beyond brand and its associated intellectual property.

    The company rebranded to Bed Bath & Beyond in Canada on June 29, 2023, with the launch of bedbathandbeyond.ca which previously was overstock.ca. Subsequently, bedbathandbeyond.com and the brand’s new mobile app were introduced in the United States on August 1, 2023.

    Presently, the new brand offers a diverse selection of top-notch, fashionable home products at competitive prices. Overstock.com, Inc. will conclude its listing on NASDAQ a close of the market on Friday, November 3, 2023.

To mark this transition, representatives of Beyond, Inc. will also ring the NYSE Opening Bell at 9:30 AM ET on that day.

    The decision to rebrand the company as Beyond, Inc. positions it favorably for a promising future, as OSTK embarks on the journey of reshaping its consumer image. This new corporate identity is expected to facilitate the company’s outreach to millions of new customers, leveraging its advantageous and distinct asset-light e-commerce business model.

  • Overstock.com Inc. (OSTK) stock Rebounds After Hours Just Before the Upcoming Earnings

    Overstock.com Inc. (OSTK) is set to declare its Q4 and fiscal 2021 financial results before the market open on February 23, 2022. Just a day before the earnings, the stock initially suffered a decline but soon rebounded in the after hours. It seems investors are not fully certain of what to do as the company is expected to report mixed earnings. OSTK is expected to report an almost 50% growth in earnings but a decline in sales.

    On February 22, OSTK stock had a value of $36.45 per share at the close of the regular trading. The stock suffered a loss of 8.21% during the session and reached its new 52-week low of $35.67. The stock rebounded in the after-hours to add 9.19% at 342.95K shares. Hence, OSTK had a value of $39.80 per share in the after-hours on Tuesday.

    The online shopping commercial sites operator, Overstock.com Inc. has a market capitalization of $1.71 billion.

    What’s with the Up and Down Movement?

    According to reports, certain analysts lowered their price target for OSTK stock. While they did lower the price target, they maintained the overweight (buy) recommendation. As always, any price cut from analysts causes the investors to worry. Thus, the stock went down during the regular session as analysts cut the price target probably due to the expected decline in sales. Consequently, the stock reached its new 52-week low during the session, closing just above it. The new low price of the stock provided a good opportunity for investors to buy the stock before it reports earnings growth. Therefore, OSTK stock rebounded in the after-hours on Tuesday.

    While the stock seems to be recovering from its losses, the upcoming earnings and opening of the market on Wednesday will clarify the actual situation. As of now, the stock has lost 22.95% in the past five days alone and 38.23% year to date.

    The core objective to initiate this Fund is to maximize profits amid the crypto boom. As we know that the crypto market is full of potential and the future belongs to the new tech. Blockchain-based Bitcoin’s recent boom in the crypto market has once again attracted investors in big numbers.

    The fund is anticipated to operate for 8-years, which will revolve around a capital commitment of $45 million. Initially, Overstock will receive the fund’s profit before splitting it as per the limited liability partnership. Moreover, the fund will own a “notable” minority stake in the Overstock-owned tZero Group.

    The company is also near reporting its next earnings report. Wall Street is expecting positive outcomes. Analysts have forecasted OSTK to post $0.27 earnings per share, which would mark a 136.99% rise year-over-year. While the revenue is anticipated to be $709.60 million, up by 91.33%.

    Conclusion

    Overstock.com (OSTK) has pulled a high potential deal with maximum risk—the fact that crypto is still a volatile market. But, if things go well which are as expected by the firm, then it will skyrocket the profit of Overstock.
