I think Yahoo is a great company, with great assets.

Yahoo is a company that is very strong in content.

Not only does Yahoo! have a unique franchise, it increasingly has industry-leading tools, technology and, most importantly, people.

Yahoo is positioned for accelerated financial growth. We have a powerful consumer brand, a huge global audience, and a highly profitable operating model.

Of all the big Internet companies, Yahoo is the most highly valued on a price-earnings and price-sales basis.

Yahoo would benefit from going private or becoming part of a larger corporation.

I myself am a builder and get totally excited about building Yahoo! as a brand and building it into a bigger and better company. That's what I intend to do.

Facebook, Google, Apple, Yahoo - there's a common theme. None of these companies ever sold. By staying independent, they were able to build a great company.

The Internet is a powerful way to make lots of money... But we are not going to buy Yahoo!

Unfortunately, because of the breadth of what Yahoo does, they sort of became mediocre in so many properties.
