Microsoft will try to negotiate with Yahoo again
This is a possible acquisition of Yahoo by Microsoft. About the possibility of a repetition of the attempts of the software giant to buy Yahoo began to speak in mid-September. Since then, rumors have multiplied, and the other day Reuters news agency confirmed this information by talking to sources close to the leadership of both companies.
So far, Microsoft itself has opponents of a deal with Yahoo, but there are still fewer of them than supporters. But in line for such a tidbit as Yahoo, there are already companies such as DST Global, as well as Providence Equity Partners, Hellman & Friedman, Silver Lake Partners and Alibaba (Yahoo, by the way, has a stake in Alibaba).
It may well be that Microsoft will unite with someone, and try to arrange a joint transaction. Who exactly can be a partner of Microsoft, is not reported. By the way, despite the fact that Yahoo is not the best of times, some of the company's resources are extremely popular among American Web users. For example, the postal service of this company still has the most users in the United States. The total number of users of various services of the company reaches 500 million people.

After the rumors about Microsoft’s interest in Yahoo were confirmed, the latter’s shares quickly rose in price. In one day, they went up immediately by 10.1%, and this, against the background of news about the “second wave of crisis”, is just fine. Yes, and in the usual time, such a rapid appreciation of the company's shares is not so common. In addition, Microsoft’s shares also rose in price, by about 2%, which is also not bad. If companies really unite, then the share of this association in the search engine market will be about 30% in the USA.
It is clear that no official confirmation has yet been received from Yahoo or Microsoft, but this confirmation is probably not far off.
