The US government should buy Yahoo. They own a ton of good domain names and the brand alone is worth gazillions. Imagine YahooBurgers and Fries! Or Yahoo! Smoothies! YAHOOOOOOOOO!!!! (isn’t that what Goofy yelled when he fell off those high cliffs?)

Yeah who? John

I could see Yahoo being folded into the McClatchy Company quite comfortably. In fact I think that’s where they belong. I really think they would enjoy it at the home.

Forget Yahoo. Sun Microsystem’s stock is down 50% from it’s 52wk high. Jonathan schwartz has not blogged in ages. When will the board oust him?

jerry is the worst4 ceo in america. its astounding that he was able to take the half-dead company nearly gutted by semel and take 50% off of its share price. astounding.

dan rosensweig is a windbag, but i don’t see how he could possibly be worse than jerry

its questionable if a change at the top can even halt the decline now
jerry, “could have had $33″ will be etched on your tombstone

[...] Yahoo Stock Falls Off The Cliff. When Will Jerry Give Up? Yahoo’s already crushed stock price has fallen further today – its down 8.36% since this morning, bringing it to a nearly five year low of $17.75. Yahoo has been as high as $34 in the last year (thanks to that Microsoft takeover bid), which means nearly $23 billion has been taken out of shareholder pockets in that period. [...]

“YTD is a rather poor benchmark.”

Merl, I was simply attempting to compare the return of YHOO to the “market” (and to GOOG) in order to get a quick glimpse of it’s relative performance. A better measure might include risk adjustments to the returns and varying (longer?) time periods. Or, are you suggesting that a 1 day period is better than an 8 month period? Furthermore, let’s look at another statement – “Yahoo has been as high as $34 in the last year (thanks to that Microsoft takeover bid), which means nearly $23 billion has been taken out of shareholder pockets in that period.” Let’s restate that sentence using GOOG: Google has been as high as $ 747 over the past 52 weeks, which means that roughly $234 billion has been taken out of shareholder pockets in that period. (Again, I’m not attempting to defend Yahoo management — they may be very, very bad for all I know.)

LOL, and I remember when it was $300 too.

If someone offered to buy the place for $400, management turns it ever so quickly down, stock slips to $1 only to bounce back to $50 over the coming years….

Great choice.
