| 08:40 EDT | | 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 |
