SOFTBANK TO ANNOUNCE JOINT VENTURE WITH MSFT TODAY!!!

Could MSFT be part of the YHOO strategy? SOFTBANK recently sold off equity positions on YHOO. Could it be that they were making room for MSFT?

SOFTBANK would not support any portal strategy that would compete with its YAHOO investment. That said, with YHOO looking for additional acquisitions, a MSFT equity investment would supply cash + brand power to the YHOO portal space.

Can't wait to see what they say tomorrow. They will have a news conference today.

Good luck LONGS!!

BTW: Own 250 shares at 175. Still, I look forward to positive news soon. This stock will not be anywhere close to 175 before earnings.

Hector
