#8"the $31 per share offer "massively undervalues" Yahoo,"
Now I'm no mathematician, but when microsoft made that offer, I believe their stock closed at 19.10, which I believe is significantly less than $31. The mere offer from microsoft caused their value to jump 50% in a day. Monday might be ugly for YHOO owners.

This is normal in a a takeover situation.
The reason being that a company that you control is worth a lot more than a bunch of shares that pay you dividend, but offer you little or no control over the company.
The pundits know this and drive up the price, expecting to make a profit when Microsoft buys them out.

#10Yahoo stock is trading around $29 a share, yet Yahoo's board say that Microsoft's offer of $31 a share "massively undervalues" the company?
