Yahoo stocks are damaged so badly that even MSFT will think twice before coming back to the table. It is a sad sad story of one person’s ego (Yang) and nothing else. Wait till it becomes realithy, you will see a brain drain at an accelerated pace from Yahoo. Yang, you messed this one up.

I think this move was just a reaction to Microsoft to back off of Yahoo. Mere word of the deal caused Microsoft to end its bid. It seems to me that when Icahn joined the board, and the hostile takeover attempt by Microsoft never getting off the ground, i think neither yahoo or google will end up actually pursuing this deal now that the ruse has worked.
