In a two-week trial completed in April, Google demonstrated its technology could generate higher revenue than Yahoo's own system.
Yahoo's not boned yet... just the speculative investors that jumped on the bandwagon anticipating a buyout. The board has shown that it has some promising initiatives underway to increase profitability (by outsourcing to Google). The whole reason Icahn had a case was because Yahoo wasn't profitable and didn't have prospects other than Microsoft, and here Yahoo has shown that it has other prospects.
That means their case at the next shareholder meeting gets stronger, they retain their jobs, and hopefully they get profitable enough to invest in new technologies and maintain their profitability and independence.
I'm not sure why people would be happy for more consolidation and less competition in the marketplace
Please, PLEASE do NOT feed the trolls.
