wait, so they sold off billions worth of the company, but then instead of re-investing any of it to keep the remaining company afloat, or give them any competitive advantage, they're just going to give it all to stock holders, and move on to the next piece?

The only remaining pieces are holdings in Yahoo Japan and AliBaba. There's no operating company left.

Yes. That's what "Holdings in Yahoo Japan" mean. It's a different company but Yahoo proper has a stake in it.
