How so? They put themselves up for sale and the deadline for final bids was today. They also missed profit and revenue forecasts, it was another ugly quarter for a quickly shrinking company.

Dramatic? Yea. Click bait? Only for those who didn't know it was coming. Yahoo has a very meagre future as a company hoping to retain their revenue (let alone profit)

#6Its taken them a while, all their peers except for Amazon have essential gone to the dust. If Geocities had been bought by say Google instead of Yahoo I could have easily flipped my options into my own startup. However dot bomb hit so hard instead of wealth I was left holding a huge capital gains tax bill that forced me into 10 solid years of hardcore poverty as most of my income was confiscated to pay off the debt. Not a nice outcome for companies bought by yahoo back in the 90s!

How do you not make money and still owe a lot in capital gains?
