Yahoo And Microsoft In Merger Talks
The Wall Street Journal today has a article that says Yahoo and Microsoft are in merger negotiations.
A year after Microsoft originally approached Yahoo in takeover talks, Microsoft and Yahoo executives are weighing the possibility of merging the two companies.
"In what appear to be early-stage discussions, executives at Microsoft and Yahoo are taking a fresh look at a merger of the two companies or some kind of match-up that would pair their companies' respective strengths, say people familiar with the situation.
The renewed talks are a sign of the continued growth in Google’s power and problems over the past year with in-house efforts at Yahoo and Microsoft to ride a boom in Internet advertising. Meanwhile, management changes at both companies could help pave the way for a pairing that a year ago couldn’t happen."
