There’s some heavy speculation going on the
market about microsoft’s buyout of yahoo. yahoo
went up 7% today and closed at 28.76. There’s increased
tension between the two company as yahoo is refusing to
give into $31 a share buyout. They are still negotiating and there’s
talk that microsoft might do a hostile takeover. I think microsoft will raise
there bid to maybe 33-35 level. I think yahoo is worth more than 31 a share
simply because yahoo has a lot of potential to increase its market share of the
internet advertisement industry and it has good return on average equity of 21%, while
it still gotta work on improving return on assets.
