The purpose of this blog is to track 20 common stocks for a full year. The idea is to beat the S & P 500 like a mutual fund without the very high churn rate. These stocks will be held in a portfolio until next December 31.

I found this article the other day when I was checking the stock price of Yahoo. (No Joke)
 I thought it was very good even thought the...." 7 habits of.....(fill in the blanks)" is by now warn weary.

Re: Yahoo....I am not sure where all this internal leaking of detail regarding Mayer's tenure and decisions are coming from, but it can not be good for confidence levels to have this information in the news every week.
Also,  I think the stock market has voted on the likely success Yahoo will have under Mayer. I think it is probably too late for Mayer to review Habit #4 anyways.
