Yahoo Prepares For A Black Monday

>> Yahoo won’t need their search marketing employees any more, possibly 2,000 employees.

They have 2,000 people on the payroll just for search marketing, and Panama is the best they can come up with?

Ouch.

yahoo needs a CEO with balls, that is willing to go for it, and just cut the fat on that company. It seems to be a place that has been for long overtaken by midle management, and the coorporate b.s. that comes with it, while the good talent has left already.

I am trying to think any great product developed in house in the last year. Maybe Yahoo Answers, is decent, but what else?

microsoft thinks yahoo is worth $33 with msft execs, yahoo thinks they're worth $37 with their own execs, the general public thinks they're worth... uh... well before the msft news broke, around $19. either yahoo execs have huge egos and think they're worth 2x as much, or the rest of the world is dumber than the yahoo execs. there's a lot of smart people out there (i.e. all the analysts) and there is no way the yahoo execs are 2x as smart as everybody else.

maybe yahoo has something up their sleeves. like a new social network or something. but then again, they've had very little innovation come out of there in the last few years, so i'd put my bets at $20-22 / share when the market closes on monday.
