OK, everyone is already talking about Microsoft buying Yahoo. But what I find interesting is that Bill Gates is out and now…
Criticism of the proposed $44.6 billion cash & stock takeover of Yahoo by Microsoft has elicited negative comments from some industry observers.
People who bought Google stock at its peak $747.24 are likely pretty upset these days. Missing estimates is rough enough on a shareholder, and so is losing more than $200 per share (hey, it could be worse, you cold be a Lexmark shareholder). But in the wake of Microsoft's bid for Yahoo, Google shares continue to drop.
If Yahoo agrees to Microsoft's proposed takeover, the two companies will have a lot of duplicate services to either integrate or eliminate.
We know, we know: the big news today is Microsoft's bid to take over Yahoo. But believe it or not, there are other things going on in the world, and one of them is Yahoo's acquisition of Maven Networks.
Well, maybe there’s some good news to come out of Yahoo’s recent poor financial performance after all–Microsoft wants to buy it for $44.6 billion.
