Stock Card's winner and loser of the week Being a short week in the United States hasn't dampened the stock market exciting stories. This post about how Cryptocurrency might have messed up Thanksgiving conversations was a good read on our day off. It is also very relevant to the most interesting stock market stories of the week: Winner: Overstock.com (Ticker: OSTK), up more than 23%! Remember Overstock.com? We talked about it about a year ago, when the company's CEO - Patrick Byrne - announced he is a true believer in the future of cryptocurrency. The stock had a trip to the moon and back. Everything was quiet until the Black Friday. Patrick reaffirmed his plans to get rid of the e-commerce business and redirect all the company's cash toward the creation of a cryptocurrency exchange platform. He boldly said that he doesn't care if the company lose $1 Million per month and he has an anonymous buyer for the e-commerce business. In America, we love bold and crazy, and the stock is up more than 23%. Visit Overstock.com's Stock Card now Loser: L Brands (Ticker: LB), down more than 17%! The millennials are killing many iconic brands. The recent victim of theirs is Victoria Secret. The company has been investing heavily in its stores, but it does not see much interest. The sexy angels wearing push-up bras were captivating the minds of young women (and, men) for years, but this new generation is not into it anymore. The rise of the athleisure category is costing L Brands. Women prefer comfort! The L Brands' products remind people of the old Victorian-era corset that deprive women of oxygen. Nowadays, the younger kiddos prefer breathing, I guess! Visit L Brands' Stock Card now A new look for our Advance Filters What is your go-to ‘Advance Filter' on Stock Card?
