The Yahcrosoft might not be a Dead Merger Yet
Carl Icahn is looking closely at staging a proxy fight to unseat board members at Yahoo! and force a relook at a merger with Microsoft after the July 3rd board election at Yahoo!.
He is reportedly in talks with corporate pundits from both schools of thought weighing the benefits of this action verses not acting.
Icahn has a long history of sticking his nose in corporate hornet nests of incompetence and stagnation from Chrysler to Motorola and now Yahoo!.
If you want to reform an alcoholic, you send them to alcohol rehab, if you want to reform a stagnant corporation, corporate board, or CEO that is out of touch you send in Icahn.
