Investors like news that Yahoo might be target of takeover
Yahoo Inc. stock rose 7.1 percent Tuesday on Nasdaq after The Wall Street Journal said former AOL Chief Executive Officer Jonathan Miller may pursue a takeover, stepping in after Microsoft Corp. scorned speculation of new talks.
Miller talked with private-equity firms and other investors to raise money to buy all or part of Yahoo, the newspaper said, citing unidentified people familiar with the matter. He may make an offer worth $20 to $22 a share for the company, the second most popular Web-search site.
