Haters out in force I see. The share price was $16 when she started. It's now $48. It's irrelevant what she did or didn't do to get that. False. More than 100%

False. More than 100% of that $32 increase in value was due to Yahoo's stake in Alibaba, especially due to its IPO. Yahoo itself ex-BABA lost value.
- run4yourlives2 10y agoI fail to see how this is an issue, but even if I concede the point, she still brought the stock up and created an exit for shareholders. The goal of a resurgent Yahoo seems to only have been one shared by outside observers.
