The problem is that Yahoo will drop when nobody expects it too. Some day, some analyst from out of no where will make some comment about a company that has nothing to do with Yahoo and Yahoo will drop %50 in a day because of it.

Isn't Yahoo just a web site? Where does the 2.5 billion come in?

We've all had trades go against us in a big way. Just diversify and don't bet the ranch.
