Bed Bath & Beyond faces bankruptcy while meme traders rally behind struggling stock.

Bed Bath & Beyond is preparing to file for bankruptcy as early as this weekend due to distressed debt and plummeting stock prices. The company needs to generate $300 million from share sales by April 26 to avoid default, but with the stock closing at 46 cents on Wednesday, it faces an uphill battle to raise the necessary funds within the allotted time. The home-goods retailer's business has been declining, with preliminary results indicating a 40% to 50% drop in comparable-store sales for the quarter that ended on February 25. The company may get more time to raise capital from equity investors, but obtaining shareholder authorization to issue more equity is necessary and will be decided by a vote on May 9.
