Deutsche Bank analyst Mike Baker raised his price target for Bed Bath & Beyond to $19 from $15 following the company's "relatively in-line" quarter and guidance increase. The analyst keeps a Hold rating on the shares. The guidance is back-end weighted with the Q1 outlook weaker than expected, Baker tells investors in a research note. While bulls will focus on the presence of an activist investor and the long term transformational plan as two ways to win, bears will focus in on the fact that the shares have already had a significant move higher and that the initiatives put forth in the guidance are still largely unproven, contends the analyst. Baker sees "somewhat limited" share downside in the near term with activists likely to unveil their detailed operational plan in the next two weeks.
