Bed Bath & Beyond CFO Gustavo Arnal had plunged to his death from the top of Jenga Tower in New York City. While the circumstances surrounding Arnal’s death are still unclear, investors seem to be betting that it was part of a stock pump and dump scheme. In the hours since Arnal’s body was found, Bed Bath & Beyond stock plunged nearly 28%. If the stock price continues to plunge, it could mean big trouble for the company. However, it is also possible that Arnal’s death was simply a tragic accident, but the stock is continuing to slide and that the stock price will soon come crashing down. Only time will tell.
