Midday movers: Bed Bath & Beyond, Stitch Fix, Constellation Brands and more

By Liz Moyer

Investing.com -- Stocks were falling on Thursday after stronger than expected labor data stoked fears that the Federal Reserve would keep interest rates elevated. Here are the midday movers for Jan. 5.

  • Bed Bath&Beyond Inc (NASDAQ:BBBY) shares sank 23% after the home goods retailer said it was exploring a number of options for its future, including a possible bankruptcy filing, as it struggles to maintain sales, citing lower store traffic and reduced inventory.
  • Stitch Fix (NASDAQ:SFIX) shares rose 4.2% after the online personal styling provider said it would cut 20% of its staff as it continues to work through post-pandemic growth challenges. Its CEO is departing, and founder and former CEO Katrina Lake will step in for six months or until a successor is named.
  • Constellation Brands Inc (NYSE:STZ) shares fell 8.4% after the beer and spirits giant said it expects comparable earnings per share for fiscal year 2023 to be in a range of $11 to $11.20, which is above consensus but lower than the $11.60 high point it projected a few months ago.

  • Walgreens Boots Alliance Inc (NASDAQ:WBA) stock fell 8.3% after the drug store chain beat estimates because of strong sales of cold and flu remedies. It recorded a $3.7 billion loss for the recent quarter after an opioid litigation settlement.

  • Amazon.com Inc (NASDAQ:AMZN) stock fell 1.7% after the e-commerce giant announced plans to lay off 18,000 workers in its corporate offices.
