		<description><![CDATA[Yahoo is certainly embracing its new market underperform rating, isn’t it? With rumors of December layoffs in the wind, shares in the company are trading in the $11 range today, after dipping below $12 Wednesday to yet another new 52-week low. That’s about half the price that Mithras Capital Partners suggested Yahoo sell itself to Microsoft last week.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/files/2008/10/yang_throne_of_blood.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img src="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/files/2008/10/yang_throne_of_blood-212x300.jpg" alt="" title="yang_throne_of_blood" width="212" height="300" class="alignright size-medium wp-image-6869" /></a>Yahoo is certainly embracing its new market underperform rating, isn&#8217;t it?  With <a href="http://valleywag.com/5064258/yahoo-to-cut-3500-jobs-++-party-on">rumors of December layoffs</a> in the wind, <a href="http://finance.google.com/finance?q=yhoo">shares in the company</a> are trading in the $11 range today, after dipping below $12 Wednesday to yet another new 52-week low. That&#8217;s about half the price that <a href="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/20081010/i-bet-31-per-share-sounds-pretty-good-right-about-now-eh/">Mithras Capital Partners suggested Yahoo sell itself to Microsoft last week</a>, a little more than a third of Microsoft&#8217;s (MSFT) <a href="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/20080211/yahoo-just-say-no/">$31-per-share offer</a>, which Yahoo CEO Jerry Yang claimed “massively undervalued” it, and almost a quarter of <a href="http://online.wsj.com/article/SB120257515426256541.html">the $40-a-share valuation</a> Yahoo believed it deserved.</p>
<p><img src="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/files/2008/10/yhoo2.jpg" alt="" title="yhoo2" width="200" height="152" class="alignleft size-full wp-image-6868" />Appalling. At $11.51, Yahoo&#8217;s (YHOO) stock price at this very moment, the company is trading at well below replacement value. &#8220;Spend $15 billion, and you could not build a new Yahoo today&#8211;not one with this global reach and brand,&#8221; <a href="http://www.alleyinsider.com/2008/10/yahoo-cracks-12-valuation-now-officially-ridiculous">Henry Blodget notes over at Silicon Alley Insider</a>. &#8220;Wringing compelling upside out of the stock at $12 is not rocket science. At this price, it&#8217;s not even basic arithmetic. So we say again: Yahoo at $12 is ridiculous.&#8221;</p>
<p>Ridiculous, indeed. Perhaps the government will come along and offer Yahoo a nice $31-per-share bailout&#8211;you know, just to bolster investor confidence.</p>

Yahoo shareholder dissatisfaction is following a trend line inverse to the company&#8217;s plummeting share price. In fact, the price has dipped so low that <a href="http://www.ironfirecapital.com/">Ironfire Capital</a> founder Eric Jackson&#8211;the Yahoo shareholder activist who <a href="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/category/eric-jackson/">agitated for change at the company</a> and the creator of the <a href="http://www.marketwatch.com/news/story/eric-jackson-launches-yahoo-plan/story.aspx?guid=%7B4DA2D838-E30F-4D15-8993-90EDFE0E2B82%7D&amp;dist=hppr">Yahoo! Plan B</a> investor community&#8211;has dumped his Yahoo shares.</p>
<p>&#8220;I sold my YHOO stake, which I held through my hedge fund last month when it hit $20,&#8221; Jackson told Digital Daily. &#8220;I still own a small amount personally. I had no idea idea it would fall this much but I finally decided to stop pushing a rope by calling for change from the inside [as a shareholder]. I voted with my feet. This board has the blood of its shareholders on its hands, and I hope they wear that scarlet letter stigma for a long time.&#8221;</p>
<p>Asked to comment on <a href="http://digitaldaily.allthingsd.com/20081010/i-bet-31-per-share-sounds-pretty-good-right-about-now-eh/">Mithras Capital Partners proposal</a> that Yahoo (YHOO) sell itself  to Microsoft (MSFT) for $22 a share, Jackson had this to say: &#8220;If I was in Redmond, I&#8217;d say why not wait a few weeks and pick this company up for a couple of bucks?&#8221;  </p>
