I agree with you. Short this and hold overnight is too dangerous. For YHOO, quick profit is the best way to trade. i think today's pull back (at least right now) is set the tone for tomorrow's run up. If anything bad, which YHOO known it already, they must said it already. Look at MSFT. They always say future earning may not be as good as people expect. But every time they release their earning, they will beat the #. Why? it is so simply, you would rather give a little and gain big. This is simply rule to run these high tech company in CA. Everyone know this. I think YHOO's management want his company to exist long time. So why not give a little earlier and gain big latter on. So I think all bad news already out. It is just a matter how upside surprise tomorrow will be.

Just my $.02.

YHOO will announce a 3 for 1 stock split after the bell.

YOu can bet on this to happen.

>>Only a fool would say that would not be addressed SOON

This fool thinks the smartest thing Yahoo could do is not split the stock.

They held off splitting last quarter when the stock was at 100. I'm sure the reason was to dampen overexhuberance, so why not now also?

Splitting the stock wouldn't do anything to increase the quality of its shareholder base, and not splitting would discourage the trading in small lots that has been driving it lately.
