Avon ( AVP) jumps at the close, +5.5%, on a report Richmont is arranging financing for a bid. Richmont Holdings, the owner of Mary Kay and Dirt Devil, is putting together an offer for AVP to rival the $10B bid from Coty that Avon rejected last month. AVP is up 9.2% since the news broke at market close.
