Fair warning: this is an unsubstantiated, nonspecific, and not entirely easy to swallow rumor. Today isn't April 1st, however, and the rumor seems to have gotten the attention of a leading tech reporter and at least a few stock traders. So (for the umpteenth time) consider the possibility that Yahoo is on the path to getting acquired.
And those are about the only details available. Some mysterious organization might, at some point, pick up Yahoo with the help of Steve Ballmer, then. You can't say the first sentence of this article didn't warn you.
Still, people with money are throwing a little of it behind the idea; even as the Dow and Nasdaq are crashing, Yahoo's stock has been lifted well above both of them (in terms of percentages) by the rumor.
