Shares of US department store Macy's have surged on hopes of a $5.8bn buyout deal, as an investor group has offered to pay $21 for each share of the retailer that they do not already own. Macy's, which operates more than 720 stores in the US, has faced years of struggle due to declining sales, increased competition, and store closures.
