The future is bright at Yahoo. At least that's what founder Jerry Yang has been telling his investors -- and anyone else who will listen. But Yahoo may soon have to yield to Microsoft's unsolicited bid, according to Kara Swisher at All Things Digital.
"Most investors I talked to were unenthusiastic about the plan and dubious that Yahoo's blue-sky hopes would come through," Swisher wrote in reference to Yang's bid to buy more time for Yahoo.
According to Swisher, a deal could come within two weeks, putting an end to what has become a long public dance between the two companies that has seen tough talk and a slew of alternative suitors.
Earlier this month, news broke of a secret meeting between executives at Yahoo and Microsoft. That news now looks as if it may have laid the foundation for a deal sooner rather than later.
