Clearly in hindsight Yahoo has not been a good short. The shorts were right about the company, it is just that the stock didn't follow the company.
I don't think anyone could have predicted that a little company like Yahoo
( and yeah...it's a little company) would be valued than more than most of the companies in the S & P 500.
Something like this has never happened before. In the history of the stock market, no stock has never seen a more out of wack valuation.

I don't think this is a good stock to short, but I think some options here that are well timed could make a lot of money. That was the point of my thread... I wanted some of the others Yahoo bears insight as to when the stock will crack.
The premiums on the options for this company are very high. This is strictly gambling here, that is why I use the word "well timed".

As for Yahoo being an "industry leader", this is like making up your own country than declaring your self King. If you really looked at the company, and really did the research and not just listen to the hype and the press releases you would see that Yahoo isn't a leader in anything.
