Unlike all shorts, I like YAHOO to go up tomorrow so I can put in my next shorts.

Earnings report are great. But like the US cannot exist in prosperity amidst the global crisis, YAHOO cannot defy gravity while all the rest of the techs are selling off.

Shorted YAHOO today when Microsoft went below Aug 31 support. Could YAHOO turn the tide now that Microsoft and Cisco and Lucent are tanking. I don't think so.

Yahoo is now an $11Billion company. Could it be bigger than DISNEY or
TIME WARNER, or the broadcast channels. At least, impact of TV or print ads can be measured, but as for the net, there's really no way you can measure. So advertisers would advertise only as a supplement to their other ads.

BUT THEN, what would advertisers do in a recessionary environment?
