Yahoo!, Inc. (NASDAQ:YHOO)

Looking for an acquisition by AAPL

It would make sense for Apple to buy Yahoo! for its technology and patents not even considering Apple's venture into the TV market and what Yahoo! has to offer to make it seamless creating a change from cable tv as we now know it.
It may happen in 6 to 12 months or maybe sooner. A 50% premium to todays $15.75 level may be paid for Yahoo! minimum.

Yahoo! is the AOL of today, a company once very popular doomed by a failure to evolve alongside its competitors. They fail to expand their most promising asset, Yahoo finance, while lagging behind their competitors in most other areas.

An article was published this year from a former Yahoo employee detailing how frustrating it was working for a company that had little understanding or concern for user experience. Apples success proves that the user experience is critical in the software market today. People don't just expect applications to serve their intended function, they expect them to be intuitive and attractive as well. This is the bar that Apple has set, and the bar Yahoo! continues to fall short of.

Perhaps one of the most important aspects in attracting talent. Where do the brightest of the young generation want to work today? Apple, Facebook, Google, Amazon

You won't see many interested in Yahoo! and they will struggle to recruit the best talent, creating a continuous downward spiral.

Poor execution will continue.

Lots of possible scenarios including
selling Asset, taken over by MSFT, or massive cost cut in the next 6 months.

Yang is gone, stock should go up.

Change at the top will open the door to value-added possibilities

Should be in the 20s this year

Yahoo may not be the best search engine, but it is better than anything out there !

Has a good spell coming.

There are currently 3500 YHOO shares in my "fund" with break-even of around 11.55 USD.

good yahoo

Alibaba wants to take over Yahoo! Inc with a takeover price $20-25 a share.

i expect a take over offer in the near term and if the offer is bellow 19 it may have more offers incoming.

Oh well, why not? A ton of smart investors are aboard on this one. Yahoo! has to be one of the worst-run companies out there, but there's still some value here. Dan Loeb may not be a nice guy, but he's an uber-successful investor and he's on board with this one.

Deej

Go msft

trade secret

I believe this company will be acquired very soon.

Who's going to buy Yahoo ? Google, Microsoft or Yahoo Japon? Fine thriller that should benefit the investors even if they jump in late on the boat...
