I'm putting my money on the raider. I'm not sure If he'll get what he wants from Microsoft but it is obvious that Yang's time as CEO is ticking and that there's no rescue plan. Just stalling the moment untill someone more determined, like calm Carl here, takes the wheels and steers. Is it me or Susan's Decker salary (the highest) is incredibly low? 55,000 dollars a month isn't such a big deal. Icahn will fry Yang. I’m putting my money on the raider.

Take all of your pay in stock, pay the lowest possible capital gains tax on that stock and circumvent paying any income tax, social security tax or medicare tax. Your mailman pays more into social security and medicare than this greedy billionaire. The $1 salary is a scheme used by the greediest of the greedy.

Granted Yahoo has been doing an okay job of turning themselves around since the deal went south, but key factor is time, Yahoo has done decently int he short run, but it remains to be seen if anything will happen in the long run. And besides, even if they oust Yang, what makes Icahn think that Microsoft will all of the sudden be happy to fork over the original amount again? The best they can hope for is to restart the deal, albeit at a slight disadvantage this time. Well, you do get what you pay for most of the time…
