Is there any news why GMS is up ~15% in the last month? Trying to figure out if it will retrace for a better entry

GMS. Sold a small portion of my position yesterday of this building supplier/distributor held since 2019 on sudden jump in price yesterday, with no accompanying news. Today the news has forthcome: "Home Depot Bid Kicks Off a Battle for $5 Billion Building-Products Company"

finance.yahoo.com

I have other shares in this subsector: BLD,BLDR, BXC

Perhaps not a good time to be here, if the following are true:
In many/most parts of the country, it's now cheaper to rent than to buy homes.
The supposed shortage in new homes doesn't seem to exist now:
Used homes for sales are taking much longer to sell
Shares of homebuilder stocks are down.
