Microsoft +Yahoo = Microhoo?
A whole googol of lawmakers (yes, googol = 10100 , do you like that?) are lining up to poke and prod the Microhoo deal. There are some pretty charts at the end of this article, so keep reading!
The House Energy and Commerce subcommittee wants to hold a hearing about online advertising market and other issues related to Microsoft’s bid to buy Yahoo. So as it stands, there are Energy and Commerce, Judiciary antitrust and a whole lot of other boring committee meetings set up before anything can happen.
This potential merger makes sense if any of these companies hope to challange Google in search and advertising, their biggest concerns are that of privacy.
So how should investors react?
MSFT – Back around $28 is a sweet…sweet support level. I like.
YHOO – The stock will hover around $27-$30 depending on if the deal gets a yay or nay. Sideway trends are a good way to sell options on and collect on the time decay.
GOOG – To quote Borat “I like! Is good!”. Below $500 is a nice entry for long term holds.
