very true. yahoo finance is still my number one choice and i'm using it every single day. even for a daytrading. and if appl is going to buy it-i'm absolutely certain that they will f**d up everything. rest of the crowd like goog or marketwatch or whatever-they just pure crap..would be a big headache for me..
Adrian Perika at Goldman Sachs San Francisco would be the man behind this. I have his number... maybe should call, but won't. He now works for Apple, ir is a liaison. Since Apple lost AdMob to Google, they've been vigilant about purchases, but they acquire maybe a third of what Google does, and maybe a quarter of what HP did (lol... did... HP management freaks/deliquients) - if I recall correctly, 8 very small aquisitions last year. The redhat idea sounds great - with Jobs leaving, this may happen. What a story I'd it were a success. Build your own Mac is also an inevitable return. Apple will mount up the PC business only when they're a success everywhere else - which IMO is close, dont forget their inefficiencies in the branding an retail baggage...
Are you kidding? Offer them 44 and a snickers bar AAPL/YHOO would be an interesting merger IMO. Yahoo just doesn't profit like Google does. They could if they were forced to though. I've had yahoo! as my homepage since '98. Goog isn't even close.
same here. i have an email with them since they offer it, and using it every single day. for all these years-no complaints whatsoever. CS regarding various issues with yahoo finance-top notch. much faster than IB
i prefer gmail, but i heard yahoo has updated their email interface. is it actually an improvement? i use das trader, so i get all of my data and news via that platform. i even use idastrader for quotes on my iphone lol as a younger person, i would have to say that i don't know anyone who uses yahoo for anything, while everyone uses a macbook or iphone. yahoo doesnt offer any unique products (please inform me if i'm wrong) so to me, apple buying yahoo just doesn't seem like a good move.
LOL---Bob you crack me up, dude! The discussion could be about the south end of a north bound mule and you could somehow tie in a slam on IB.
Check out YHOO pre- market in this down day. Definitely something is cooking. Downside risk is very limited. if rumor materialzes => YHOO will be at $40 if rumor lingers => YHOO at $15 to $16 range if market tuns positive => $YHOO at $18 if market rallies 10% worst case YHOO will be $13. So risk is very limited. Much better than investing in stocks like NFLX or ...
