Why Pitney Bowes Stock Is Soaring TodayPhoto, wide shot, wide-angle lens, Hedge fund, neutral atmosphere, photo by Charlie Waite: https://img.theapi.app/temp/95282efd-f725-49c0-be40-aa74627f7ccc.png

Shares of Pitney Bowes (NYSE: PBI) climbed as much as 20% on Friday in an apparent reaction to a private equity buyout of one of the company's rivals, Stamps.com (NASDAQ: STMP). That company is being acquired at a substantial premium, leading investors to reconsider Pitney Bowes' valuation.

Pitney Bowes is a 100-year-old shipping company, best known for its classic postage meters. But in recent years it has shifted to digital shipping services, including customer information management and mailings for e-commerce. It made that shift, in part, due to the disruption in the business by Stamps.com.
