Yahoo Rejects Microsoft!!! Breaking News!

I think also that the Feds would block them. The country doesn't need more monopolies.

 

will microsoft pay $40 per share or is it just going to be yagooo !

 

Can I have some of what you're smoking? Yahoo will never be wealthier than Microsoft. Yahoo has nothing on the horizon...they need Microsoft as much as Microsoft needs them.

 

Quick everyone sell their stocks and then when M$ agrees to the 12 billion increase buy the stocks back. If I was M$ I would be like 50billiom take it or leave it.

 

oh! dont take my words so seriously.. I just made a speculation that some day when major consumer/business change their path to opensource..cought.. linux ..cought ubuntu.. and yahoo manage to get their YSM and social networking to the next level we could see a far different scenario between now and then

 

Your not thinking thoroughly. Google acquiring Yahoo would be a horrible idea. They have too many criss-crosses and it to be close to a monopoly. Its even worse then Microsoft acquiring Yahoo.

 

I'm thinking if Yahoo shares plummet then they will have no choice but to let Microsoft buy them out

 

Absolutely shocking but probably temporary, they are likely just holding out for more money.

 

Haha, good stuff

 

Yahoo and Microsoft should just kiss and make up because right now both of them combined probably do not make up half of what the market share Google holds right now on search. They either need to combine themselves to take on the giant, or both be squashed.

 

Well he said that he don't see any reasons for Google to acquire Yahoo. I see many. As for the monopoly thing, if Microsoft have a way around it, than i guess that Google have the same way too.
If i remember good,i think that Microsoft was once in deep s*** for Windows,so they have experience with this

What a big turn around since 2002 when Yahoo refuse to buy Google for $3 bil. It was just 2 years before Google went public and worth $147 bil.


p.s.
If Microsoft do buy Yahoo and make YSM as bad as AdCenter,i will shot myself

 

Its not uncommon........ it happens in this BIDDING Game...... Yahoo knows that Microsoft will buy Yahoo if they increased their price....... so they are increasing the price cozz of demand........... That was the case when TATA bid for CORUS (Stee Company) they increased the bid many times... i guess from 455 to 608 pence.... and atlast they aquired that..... but this will impact negatively on Microsoft Stock....

Maybe they would merge adwords and yahoo search marketing - would kind of make PPC easier for us : )

 

it would take time for the merger to be complete. I'm sure everyone would still use yahoo and live separately

 

At the bottom of the article it states the possibilty why Google would attempt to acquire Yahoo.

1. The title is incorrect, Yahoo rejecting Microsoft is still a rumor.
2. I doubt the feds would make a monopoly charge, Yahoo's value is not in the United States, but on the Internet (and since when do the feds have anything to say there)
3. Dunno, just felt like making a 3.

 

i guess this doesn't mean anything http://biz.yahoo.com/ap/080209/microsoft_yahoo.html

there was also an article about the FEDs looking into Google acquiring Yahoo.
They were using the word 'monopolizing'

 

Good, I'm glad the offer will be rejected. Now it's time for Microsoft and Yahoo to invest in their own businesses and create search engines that can rival Google.

 

wow i just saw this post ya if they want more money im sure microsft will pay google will not buy yahoo they could help them tho because google does not want them to sell to microsoft

 

I doubt they will take even $40 a share.. lol

i bet they probly want $50.
