Members of the proxy board received a short email from Microsoft’s law firm Sullivan & Cromwell Thursday morning, five days after Microsoft announced it was dropping its unsolicited bid for Yahoo after an unsuccessful three-month courtship. Neither a Microsoft nor Yahoo spokesman could be reached for comment. The move is a clear sign that Microsoft isn’t planning a sudden reversal of its decision and comes amid speculation that Microsoft and Yahoo sides will restart talks as several large shareholders have expressed their disappointment that a deal wasn’t reached.” http://online.wsj.com/article/SB121027770070978351.html
