Dave why do you think those two mergers will have a negative effect on Yahoo's earnings? Vendit, Check out both companies. Both have yet to earn a profit. They will not for some time after the merger. Mergers usually make this situation worse. Hence: * More shares outstanding due to the dilutive effect of the stock buyout. * Reduction in earnings as both companies bring losses to offset Yahoos earnings. * Thus less earnings divided by more shares outstanding so less earnings per share.
