Yahoo's most recent trend suggests a bullish bias. One trading opportunity on Yahoo is a Bull Put Spread using a strike $49.00 short put and a strike $44.00 long put offers a potential 24.07% return on risk over the next 32 calendar days. Maximum profit would be generated if the Bull Put Spread were to expire worthless, which would occur if the stock were above $49.00 by expiration. The full premium credit of $0.97 would be kept by the premium seller. The risk of $4.03 would be incurred if the stock dropped below the $44.00 long put strike price.
The 5-day moving average is moving up which suggests that the short-term momentum for Yahoo is bullish and the probability of a rise in share price is higher if the stock starts trending.
The 20-day moving average is moving up which suggests that the medium-term momentum for Yahoo is bullish.
The RSI indicator is above 80 which suggests that the stock is in overbought territory.

Yahoo! Slips Following New Wave of Alibaba Enthusiasm
Tue, 18 Nov 2014 20:09:00 GMT
Barrons.com – Shares of Yahoo! (YHOO) are down 72 cents, or 1.4%, at $51.65, retreating from some gains yesterday prompted by continued optimism about the company monetizing the 384 million-share-stake in Alibaba Group Holding (BABA) following the latter's IPO on September 19th. You'll recall that Yahoo! said immediately after the IPO that it agreed to a request by Alibaba to lock up its shares for one year from the offering date. Yesterday's chatter included a piece in Forbes by contributor Eric Jackson with IronFire Capital, in which he returns to an earlier argument about how Yahoo! stock could rise dramatically if the value of its Alibaba stake is realized. Jackson has in past opined, before the Alibaba IPO even happened, that SoftBank founder Sasayoshi Son could try to buy out Yahoo! and get an instant tax savings on Son's investment in Alibaba.

Yahoo No Longer Sells Ads in “Saturday Night Live” on Yahoo Screen
Tue, 18 Nov 2014 17:17:52 GMT
The Wall Street Journal – –the SNL-package provided Yahoo with a marquee title for its fledgling video hub, Yahoo Screen. The classic comedy clips, part of a one year deal, would theoretically attract an audience that could be sold to advertisers, while also helping get more brands thinking about Yahoo as a legitimate video destination. As of September, Yahoo no longer sells ads for these videos, though the full SNL clip library is still available on Yahoo Screen. In fact, NBCUniversal now has the rights to sell ads alongside SNL clips on Yahoo Screen, said a person familiar with the matter.
