For the time being, its stores will remain open and continue to serve customers throughout the U.S.

Home good retailer Bed Bath and Beyond has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

The company has been unable to secure the funds it needed to stay afloat.

The big-box store has seen sales dwindle over the past decade, as it has not been able to sell more store-branded products.

Last year, the business decided to switch strategies, opting to bring in more national brands that shoppers may have recognised, but it wasn’t enough.

The company reported a loss of almost $400 million for the third quarter.

For the time being, its stores will remain open and continue to serve customers throughout the U.S.

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen pointed to a “soft landing” for the economy, with unemployment slightly down despite slower job creation.

In a recent interview on Bloomberg, Yellen stated that “For the US, the kinds of metrics that we would monitor that would summarise risks — whether it’s asset valuations or a good degree of leverage — things look good, I don’t see red lights flashing”. #featured #trending
