Nashville footwear merchant Genesco (GCO Quote), meanwhile, jumped 16.5% to $38.50 after a Tennessee court last night ordered Finish Line (FINL Quote) to go through with its $1.5 billion purchase of the company. According to Genesco, the court determined that Finish Line had breached the companies' merger agreement.
