8:58 am: Blue Apron sinks 7%, explores "strategic alternatives" including a possible sale
Shares of the meal kit service slid more than 7% in Wednesday's premarket trading after the company reported disappointing fourth quarter earnings and said that it was considering "strategic alternatives."

"These alternatives could include, among other things, a strategic business combination, a capital raise through the public or private markets, a transaction that results in private ownership or sale of the company or its assets, or some combination of these," a press release said. -Stevens
