Bartz since 2009 after taking office in January, Yahoo! Shares has been weak,and shown in Google and other technology companies in the competition is poor,access in 2010 November the number of months Yahoo! Outpaced by Facebook, has fallen from second to third, and the income growth of only 2%.Since Bartz was fired, the company's share price rose nearly 7%, thus her term of office is an absolute disaster for YAHOO.
Because of these two things, the media focus on the Roy CEO Bostock to find new things. After Bartz was fired, Yahoo! Appointed Scott Thomson ScottThompson as the new CEO, but in January 5, 2012 the "Wall Street journal" on the Yahoo! Appoints new CEO published an article titled "Yahoo! Proxy war is being waged" comments. Comment said, Yahoo! New CEO Scott Thomson (ScottThompson) the talent of ordinary, lack of foresight. The thought Yahoo!Appointed by the board of directors of the company to become the new CEO, is either a long time can not find suitable candidates made the move, or the board of directors forget, forget the original in Carol Batz (Carol Bartz) mistake. But regardless of the ultimate reason why, "the Wall Street journal" calls YAHOOshareholders do not continue to choose silence, it is time to stand out in thecompany to play a more active role to protect their own interests. In 2012 05months 14 days, YAHOO officially announced that the company CEO Scott Thompson for education has a false statement will leave. This is the 5 years,YAHOO to replace the fourth CEO.
