Now I've heard it all. I'm not sure what this has to do with YHOO, though. The article you referred me to is another example of Business Week's history of sensationalism and hard-core political bias. I'm not denying that there are some bulletin board or penny stocks that are risky, or even worthless. (You won't catch me putting a dime in any.) Or that there are scumbags touting them. But this is way over the line in terms of believability. That something is printed doesn't make it true. The fact that the article is chock full of unattributed sources (ostensibly because of the fear of mob reprisals) is all the more reason for skepticism. Taking a step into Fantasy Land, even if there is a shred of truth in the article, I ask again, what does this have to do with Yahoo? We're talking about a company with a $878 million cap and a healthy analyst following. Let me make this very clear: there are a number of plausible explanations for this stock's run. Mobsters knocking people in the head is not one of them.
