I think Yahoo share prices will go down further.

Fundamentals are weak for most technology stocks now.

It is time to stay with few good companies in this sector. In short it is time to stay away from the technology sector.

If you want to reap above average returns your money should be in correct sectors in the next 18 months and next decade.

However if you see prospects for the YAHOO and if you can understands their future earnings, business plans plus acquisitions etc then you should buy in fire sales. You should do thorough research before buying this stock.

I also like to include following website and they have given five reasons to buy this stock:

1. Eventually, management will get tossed.
2. Microsoft will return.
3. Investors are looking for reasons to buy this stock.
4. Long-term trends favor Yahoo.
5. It's cheap.

Yeah, I think this deal finally gets done this time but at a MUCH cheaper price. Jerry Yang can't hold a gun to Ballmer's head anymore and he knows it. Google just walked away from their search ad deal and I'm sure Yahoo! shareholders are pretty fed up with their stock price at this point.

The $33 offer Microsoft made for the company a few months ago is probably looking pretty good right about now.
