Nomura Securities maintains a 'Buy' on Bed Bath and Beyond (NASDAQ: BBBY) price target of $68.00.

Nomura analyst, Aram Rubinson, says, "Considering how intently BBBY manages its business for the long term, it is ironic that BBBY’s share price has been more rewarding to short-term traders. Investors holding BBBY shares for ten years would have earned a total return of 64%. Traders that bought BBBY shares for only one day per quarter (the earnings report) would have earned a total return of 85%. We believe that BBBY should exhibit another strong set of results. We see no reason to increase our +4.5% comp forecast at present. Our forecast implies a modest deceleration in the two-year comp. We continue to recommend an investment in BBBY shares."
