UPDATE - Canaccord Genuity downgrades Bed Bath & Beyond (Nasdaq: BBBY) from Buy to Hold. PT $73.

Analyst, Laura Champine, said, "We calculate that BBBY’s market share declined in Q4 for the first time this decade, and we expect a deceleration of top- and bottom-line growth in FY12 and beyond. We believe the company is vulnerable to market share losses given its meager online presence at 1%-2% of total sales."

"At its current valuation, BBBY trades in line with its five-year average multiples despite our expectations for decelerating top- and bottom-line growth."
