So basically it the same solution Wall Street applies to a company which faces problems sell up to a rival company or asset strip the company for all it is worth. This is why tech companies founders should try and maintain majority voting rights, like Google has and News corp, where the power with in those companies lay with the founders and no one bosses them around, not even Wall Street.
Yahoo is still descent company with a billion dollar a year profit. They need to hire someone with some vision to lead the company. Someone who can stir up a bit of media interest and who gets the company in the news for reasons other than closing down/selling off a service, sacking staff, sacking a other CEO, rehiring another CEO, or trouble with one part or another of Yahoo empire. Someone lives an breaths technology and equally the media side of the business. An run the company as a Technology and media business, as Google, Apple and Facebook all do successfully.
They need to start to generate some positive buzz around the company, I have not got a clue how to do that but they need to find a way.
