It Ain’t Over Yet

I knew we hadn’t heard the last of the whole Microsoft/Yahoo deal. I still think that Yahoo will be part of the Microsoft family a whole lot sooner than later.

Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) said on Sunday it has reached out to Yahoo Inc (YHOO.O) about an alternative deal that would not involve a full acquisition, in a move that could save the web pioneer from fighting a proxy battle with financier Carl Icahn.

Microsoft said it was not proposing to make a new bid to buy all of Yahoo “but reserves the right to reconsider that alternative” depending on discussions with Yahoo, shareholders of Yahoo or Microsoft, or other third parties.

I have been known to be wrong before, but I don’t think so this time. Of course, I know a great source for cheap flights, so if I am wrong, I can still get out of Dodge if I have too.
