Yahoo stock is up from $15 under Scott Thompson to almost $23 with Mayer, so not sure what point you're trying to make.
Please, since you are so familiar with the ins and outs of Yahoo, what would you have done differently?
- marknutter 14y agonot that.
- enraged_camel 14y agoI'm sorry, but are you implying that stock price has anything to do with how well the company is doing? Because it doesn't.
- vacri 14y agoOne place I worked at had a stock price that fluctuated. Some times it was 8c, other times it was 16c - we could actually double our stock price and still have to lay people off...
- biot 14y agoI'd be surprised if it were otherwise. The company only makes its money from selling "new" stock. The 8 and 16 cent prices are what people are paying each other for "used" stock, and the company doesn't see a penny from those "used" stock trades.
- benjaminwootton 14y agoEr, surely the stock price has something to do with how well the company are doing!
- dfxm12 14y agoIt's more a measure of the traders' perception of how the company is going to do in the (not so distant) future. Sometimes perception becomes reality. Sometimes traders have no idea what they are doing.
