In all, Pandora’s market value has fallen by about $7 billion this year, bringing the company’s value to less than $5 billion. At its peak about two years ago, Pandora’s value was $18 billion, Bloomberg notes.

The last time Pandora had a year this bad in terms of stock performance was 2011. The company’s markekt value fell by 84 percent that year.

Wilkerson: “They Feel Like Family”

Newton’s Jewelers in Fort Smith, Ark., was a true institution. But after being at the helm for most of his life, owner (and descendent of the original founder) Kelly Newton decided it was time to retire. He chose Wilkerson to handle the sale. “I’ve known the owners of Wilkerson for a long, long time. I felt at home with them,” he says. The final retirement sale was just a “blast” and the Wilkerson sales team made it so very simple and straightforward, says Newton. Would he recommend Wilkerson to others? Absolutely. “They’ve done incredible work,” says Newton. “They feel like family.”
