Based on the valuation of stakes that Microsoft (MSFT) and Pearson (PSO) bought in Barnes & Noble's (BKS) Nook business, shares of the book retailer are assigning virtually no value to the company's stores and its website, according to The New York Times in an article posted around 12 pm ET.

| 08:40 EDT | | BKS, MSFT | Barnes & Noble could rise above $30 a share, Barron's says
Barnes & Noble (BKS) shares are up about 15% since TechCrunch said Microsoft (MSFT) may pay $1B for its Nook e-reader business but the stock may have another 50% upside to $30 per share based on Barnes & Noble's asset value, contended Barron's in a report this weekend. Barron's, however, called the situation "admittedly tough to assess" because neither Microsoft nor B&N will comment on the purchase rumor. The Fly notes Barnes & Noble shares are up 4% to $20.80 in pre-market trading. Reference Link |
