Microsoft returns to the office for Yahoo. A new offer would be ready after the 2008 attempt

After the failed attempt in 2008, Microsoft is considering launching a new offer to take over Yahoo. This is what was revealed by rumors cited by Reuters. In recent months, interest from Providence Equity Partners, Hellman & Friedman, Silver Lake Partners, the Chinese of Alibaba and the Russians of DST Global had already concentrated on the Sunnyvale internet giant.

The company founded by Bill Gates had attempted to buy Yahoo in 2008 in an unsuccessful offer of 47,5 billion dollars equal to 33 dollars per share. With current market parameters, the price would be absolutely cheaper, equal to about 20 billion dollars.
