If they were to be acquired the stock would get killed. Who in their right mind would pay 7 Billion HUH ?? Acquirers HAVE to pay more or else they cannot acquire. If you dont want to pay 7 -billion, mind your own business and go away. Investors - at least right at this moment - are happy to pay $150 per share. Either you are in or you are out. OF COURSE I DO AGREE WITH YOU THAT THIS CO. IS WAY OVERPRICED and should and WILL drop after the MM lnock out all the weak shorters who may have received margin calls

The only hope for YHOO is continued speculation and momentum players. That's it. If they were to be acquired the stock would get killed. Who in their right mind would pay 7 Billion for a company that has net 102 million in revenues in the last 6 quarters? I can think of one that might love to: AOL. I assume this would have to be a merger, and that her excellency Justice would not allow it. But it would give AOL the .html it (I believe) lacks and send it cruising into web space. I have no idea what would happen to the stock price(s), but it would be one hell of a marketing engine at that point. Randy
