>is that Yahoo is being mismanaged to drive price down.

Remember when Mrs. Meyer was named CEO and HN vehemently argued that she was going to turn the place around? And anyone who said otherwise was accused of being sexist?

Here's a doozy from back then:

"every once in a while I wonder whether she's so much smarter than me that I just can't comprehend her strategy."

Now the narrative is that she mismanaged it intentionally? Should she be thrown in jail for ripping off shareholders then, like this place calls for the heads of banking CEOs?

That's not any narrative now. That's a semantically incoherent comment from someone on HN. S/he contradicts the first sentence in the second.
