MSFT to YHOO Shareholders: Fire Board, We'll Buy Company

So MS wants Yahoo, Yahoo's board doesn't like what MS will do for their corp. So Ichan steps in and tries to force the sale to satisfy his own greed, that doesn't work. So MS goes to the shareholders to force the sale. Talk about some crybabies. And people wonder way our kids have such an attitude of entitlement.

I'd love to see Yang go under any circumstances. He's taken a stellar company and put it into the ditch.

This deal should have closed in March at 37-40 and it would have if game playing, manipulation and ego problems didnt exist. Now saying this the SEC has a major problem. This deal is the laughing stock of the market. Many people lost a lot of money. People in big positions had a duty to protect their investors and shareholders and just destroyed their investments. The game continues.......the ones that know how to play it will make a fortune and that money will come from the small investors that lose it.....The federal government wants the people to trust their Social Security in a stock market that has no rules or let me rephrase has rules but they are not enforced? The SEC is a joke, the FDC is a joke and they are all a waste of tax payors money. Now the deal is back on if they throw out this board. This is a joke. Yahoo is worth 40 dollars no less and this game playing has to stop.

I bet Icahn is unloading his shares as we speak now.

J C - So you and Yang are the only two people on the planet that think Yahoo is a growing entity worth $40 a share. This is the thinking that has turned this into such a joke on Wall Street. I'll gladly sell you some calls at a $40 strike price if you would like......

I don't even believe Yahoo is worth $20/share. Left to itself it probably be worth a lot less than that in 10 years. Microsoft's failed bid and the results of that have only increase the rate of Yahoo!'s decline. I hope the proxy battle fails and Microsoft ends up grinding Yahoo! into dust the old fashion way, but beating it with a better product.

$25-27.Henry loves to be contraversial. Even Icahn won't sell at that price. The original $31 and change is what it will go for in the end - as long as it happens fast... and complete with the severence pkg package for employees. Yang had better start thinking of a future without Yahoo - and when he starts his new company I am sure it will be private - for a very long time :) ... As for Icahn he not so loyal to the idea of 'one' Yahoo as he is gettig the most money. Could see him sell off the asian assets, and sell the rest ot Msft if he thinks it will get the job done for the most bucks. So maybe Henry, Msft won't pay $33, but they won't get all of Yahoo either. I just want this stupid childish game to stop and lets move on. I don't have a lot of Yahoo shares - a few thousand - but this is really been a painful experience. Yang grow up! abd Ballmer, if you say it you better damn well mean it or your reputation will be shot from this point forward.

I am voting Yang out this August! I hope more of shareholders will do the same.

I hope they beat each other to dead, everthing its about $$$$$$$$$$$$$$, what do you think, this two company had been fighting since ms want to take over yahoo.

OK, so MSFT might really end up buying Yahoo. I hope after that, MSFT will lose and bleed a lot of money for this action....and hopefully, lead to the downfall of MSFT! The world should really be a better place without MSFT. I hope karma will do the rest for the downfall of MSFT.

My small 1500 shares will vote to put in Ichan's slate. I have no idea how the current BOD will get the votes to stay. I also hope that after they are dismissed, they lose every penny they made in personal lawsuits against them for what they have done.

What bugs me is that Icahn's only goal is to liquidate the company and cash out. He has no interest in Y! in any way. This is just a ploy to make him richer.

I'll also want to vote Yang out of the BOD too. If he think Yhoo! is worth more than $40. He at least try to hold the mrket price over the #31 bid. Not just tell other shareholers it's worth a lot more. Put the action to support it.

Who cares about Icahn? When did he become the great businessman? Talk about cry baby. He cried for help when Chrysler was going under & the government bailed out his company. Tell Icahn to go have lunch & a martini with Carlos Britos of InBev whom Anheuser-Busch scorned, and they can boo hoo together. I'm a MS shareholder, and I've not made much money in the last 10 years. I bet Yahoo! investors did, and it's still my internet provider.

come on board, lets take the money and run ! Yang and the rest of us can retire- it'll feel good to be like a wall street CEO that just received a GOLD parachute! Who does'nt want to let MC buy it out? I'm voting in the new board.

I can't believe how low MS will stoop. Weeks ago they made a ridiculously lousy offer for Y! Search and Ads, their division with the highest revenue and value. Everyone agreed it was a bad deal so Y! of course shot it down. Now they're buddying up with Icahn to rip off and rip apart Yahoo. Neither cares for the company, shareholders and users/customers. Don't buy into Icahn and MS lies. MS will most likely not buy all of Y! just Search at a bargain rate. Ichan will cash out because he owns so many shares and the board position, but none of you prospectors will.
