Boo hoo: Pickens took a loss on Yahoo

It's his own fault. He missed on this one.: Yang may have blown it, and long-time shareholders might have a beef, but that was history by the time Boone bought in. The problem was that Microsoft came to its senses and realized paying that much for Yahoo was a dumb idea. At that point there was no way for the speculators to make money.
This should have been obvious from the way Ballmer was talking. Pickens has nobody to blame but himself.; Posted by: drobinow Posted on: 07/30/08 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
