Microsoft Nears Hostile Bid for Yahoo


Microsoft was leaning toward going hostile in its pursuit of Yahoo, with an announcement likely on Friday. Price will be a key factor if Microsoft takes a hostile approach as major Yahoo shareholders have signaled they want a price in the range of $35 to $37 a share. Separately, Yahoo could announce a deal to carry search ads from Google within a week.
