iYahoo!

Don't forget about Apple. Dot Mac has certainly been left to atrophy. Yahoo! is doing IMAP for the iPhone. Plus it would certainly tick-off Microsoft.

Odds: 100 to 1

it will be ebay. meg whitman would be the last great hope to establish eHoo as the pepsi to goog's coke. she knows yahoo well, could run it for two more years and then retire.

second place would be news corp. would put rupert ahead of ebay were it not for the dow jones acquisition (which he will get); might distract him from the yahoo kill...though DJ combined with Y Finance would be pretty great.

I may be wrong (happens all the time)

But I think Jerry taking over as CEO makes a takeover of Y! less likely, not more.

Jerry is there to rally the troops. I don't think he's the guy the board would have brought in if they were trying to get the best price for the company.

No way a Google purchase would ever get past the FTC. Would create a completely lopsided situation in the internet world.

[...] Yahoo! kopflos und ohne Fortune ist damit zur Beute geworden. Die Wölfe haben schon angefangen in Rudeln zu jagen. Wenn schon derart darüber überall geredet wird, tritt es auch ein, d.h. der Markt will, dass es eintritt. Ich denke, dass es Yahoo! in dieser Form bis Ende des Jahres womöglich nicht mehr geben wird. Ob nun eBay sie frisst, Microsoft sie einverleibt, der gute Zeitungskönig Murdoch sie gegen 25%-30% seiner Aktien von MySpace eintauscht oder Heuschrecken sie überfallen… Gerüchte gibt es allerorten.
