Yahoo will sell-off, just like it does every quarter after their
earnings announcement. Furthermore, the whisper number of 11
cents per share is far too high, when you consider how many shares
outstanding they have, and how an extra 3 cents over concensus
is far too much expectation to meet.

Regards,
Peter

I'm curious, frankly I'm amazed some people think it will split. Yahoo split back in February 8th of this year. Why would they split again just 5 months later? Give me a break.

I've heard conflicting reports as to what will happen. On one side supposedly quite a few companies have warned of poor earnings reports in the near future. On the other hand, I just heard some analyst (wish I could remember the name) thinks Yahoo will report earnings exceeding even the whisper numbers.

We've sold off before the earnings are reported. Tomorrow is the big day. If they are better than whisper number of .10 or .11 I'd think we'll see a mad rush to buy with a large gap at open. Any thoughts on if that's realistic or I'm out in left field?

Thanks

Joe
