No Surprise Really
I wanted to write something about the Microsoft / Yahoo non merger on Saturday but I couldn’t come up with anything more than YAWN.
I’m not really surprised that talks between the two companies broke down or that Microsoft withdrew its acquisition offer. The deal never made sense to me and to be honest I never thought it would close so I really wasn’t surprised when the negotiations fell apart.
That’s pretty much it… No surprises anywhere, not in the deal falling apart and not in Wall Streets reaction to the news.
Anyway how about them Yankees?
