>Look like they're assembling the shares that were planned >to be sold after earnings release and combining them into >a secondary. Looks to me like they're printing Yahoo! dollars and passing them out like candy, all the while devaluing the existing shareholders positions. Why pay cash when you can just screw your shareholders and print more shares? Sure looks better on the bottom line. Heck- wonder if the phone company or power company or travel agency will start accepting Yahoo! dollars instead of cash.. Then their earnings would look fabulous! No expenses would have to be reported on their balance sheet! (another 'Normal Accounting Procedure', i'm sure) I love how they leaked this at the last second after earnings.. this stock is going to tank so hard tomorrow I can taste it. After tomorrow morning, I'll be able to finally say I TOLD YOU SO!
