 You know, the management of Macy's stopped negotiating with the private investors who wanted to buy the storied retail chain for nearly $7 billion. Macy's board of directors unanimously voted to table talks with the investors in the best interests of shareholders, according to Macy's. Now, Macy's said no to the first offer of $21 a share, but said yes to negotiations that closed to $25 a pop. But now Macy's will stick with its own strategy, pulling out of underperforming Macy's stores and pumping money into its markets.
