Barclays reiterates an 'Overweight' on Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ: BBBY) price target of $70.00.

Analyst, Alan M. Rifkin, said, "Our 4Q11 EPS estimate of $1.35 is driven by continued fundamental strength and is above the high end of management guidance of $1.28 - $1.33. Our estimate is also $0.03 above consensus expectations. In our view, strong holiday sales in December kicked off the quarter and continued throughout 4Q. We reiterate our 4Q same-store sales
forecast of 4.5%, an estimate we initiated in December."
