Yahoo still makes a huge profit. stagnant, yes. would Goldman Sachs tell anyone any other company with Yahoo profits is worth zero dollars? are you really naive to believe it?
the dirty fight for this money is what kills the company. it's a snowball. the more they fight the more stagnant the more people believe the fake evaluation the cheaper dirty investors can get their BABA money free proxy.
see it as the law put: they bought shares for a company that don't pay dividends. they choose the CEOs some twelve times. now they want dividends.
just let the ceo they elected, for what it's worth, invest company money in the company as it should have happened if the amount wasn't so big it literally started a greed war.

It's not stagnant (or profitable), it's declining and the prospects for the future are even worse. In 2015, their core businesses lost money every quarter. It would have some value separated from the valuable part of the company (BABA), but the fear is that management will continue to fuck it up and destroy any remaining value. Hence the current negative valuation. But don't listen to me, if you believe in Yahoo go buy some shares. If you're right you'll make a ton of money.

If you're right you'll make a ton of money. well, probably not because they are succeeding in crashing the company as it is. Also, if you look at the "deal" those "activist investors" are pushing to get that money, it will pay only to shares acquired before date X. So even if i knew their scheme was going to pay off, they already made sure to rig the game.

If you own shares before a deal is announced you are definitely part of the deal. No exceptions.
