Eddie Bauer
Eddie Bauer, based in Bellevue, is best known for its outdoor gear. After filing for bankruptcy in 2009, it was able to recover. We have no idea what will happen to this company. It dealt with the bad news that S&P Global had downgraded its credit rating. It will most likely merge with PacSun.

Mattress Firm
Mattress Firm has also filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, which is unfortunate. Some of its problems can be traced back to an accounting problem. Since then, the company has announced that 700 of the 3,500 stores will be sold. By terminating costly leases and restructuring, the mattress retailer hopes to improve things.
