Скачать или смотреть The DANGEROUS Consequences of Yahoo's $44 Billion Deal

In February 2008, Microsoft offered Yahoo $44.6 billion in cash and stock ($31/share, 62% premium).
Jerry Yang and the board looked at the biggest check in tech history… and said NO.

Nine years later, they sold the rotting corpse of Yahoo to Verizon for $4.48 billion.
That’s a $40.1 BILLION mistake. The single worst business decision of the 21st century.

This 40-minute documentary exposes:

How Yahoo turned down Google TWICE ($1M in 1998, $5B in 2002)
The ego-fueled rejection of Microsoft that destroyed $40B in shareholder value
How they fumbled Facebook for $1B and bought Tumblr for $1.1B… then sold it for $3M
The catastrophic CEO carousel (Carol Bartz fired by phone, Scott Thompson’s fake degree, Marissa Mayer’s $3B acquisition disaster)
The 3-billion-account hack that made Yahoo the biggest data breach in history
From $125 billion market cap in 2000 to a forgotten Verizon subsidiary worth less than a rounding error—this is the most expensive case of corporate arrogance ever recorded.

If you love stories of spectacular business failure, hubris, and missed fortunes, this one will hurt to watch… in the best way.
