Macy's shares surged after receiving a $5.8 billion buyout offer.
The offer comes from Arkhouse Management, a real-estate focused investing firm, and Brigade Capital Management, a global asset manager.
The buyout offer would pay shareholders a 32% premium above the stock's closing price Friday.

Macy's has more than 700 store locations in 43 states, Washington, D.C., Puerto Rico and Guam.
