Microsoft Played Brilliantly, Hands Off Negotiations to Yahoo Shareholders
2008-05-06 03:17:00 This blog has been rather quiet recently, but things should pick up shortly. I am in the process of relocating and other things have limited my time lately.This Microsoft (MSFT), Yahoo (YHOO) story just can't get any more interesting. Now that MSFT has walked, what can we expect? Well, YHOO's management team looks like fools, not only for misplaying their hand, but also for taking very lightly their fiduciary duty. Expect YHOO shareholders to revolt. I would not at all be surprised if YHOO is forced to do the deal, because the board really can not say anything to shareholders that remotely convinces them that the company is worth $37 per share or more. When the market thinks you are worth about $20 and someone offers you $33, you take it. End of story.Even if MSFT really is out for good, this whole thing will help YHOO because it will have to work hard to make meaningful changes now that they balked at such a great buyout offer. The problem is that morale at Yahoo is probably at r...

Nokia Tube: should shareholders be worried?
2008-04-08 17:03:00 Following on from Mark’s post earlier today about the Nokia Tube, a cellphone/handheld computer that’s aiming its targets at the Apple iPhone. We had a comment early today on PR that raises an interesting question about Apple’s rule over the high-end phone market. The reason Apple could rule this market is because the future of the so-called phone is more of a handheld computer/do everything device. Here is what Arn said: It’s a hand-held computer that just so happens to have voice capability market, and without a unified approach to the OS and application development, Nokia and the other manufacturers are fragmenting their market share into all these “specialist” phones that only appeal to small niches. They are nullifying the only advantage they have, size. So they own a huge share of a commodity market. Ask Dell how that’s working out. What good is it if they can’t parlay a leadership position in the current handset market into a large share of this new handheld c...

Should Shareholders Love FPT's CEO Spending Time Blogging?
2008-03-15 09:17:00 I just came across a newly setup blog of Truong Gia Binh, CEO of FPT. The blog is being run on a bad platform without RSS, trackback features. It seems that Binh did not have strategy and positioning for his blog. He is trying to communicate that he is still young in mind to lead FPT into a new era. But as the CEO of the largest ICT company listed on Vietnam Stock Market he should be careful since blogging is high risk for CEO. Almost top CEOs in the world avoid blogging as it is not easy to control the outcome and time consuming to answer so many comments (some unfavour comments could make them unhappy). A successful CEO blogger is Jonathan Schwartz of Sun Microsystems, his blog was planned in detail before making public. With clear strategy he could add value to the communication with staff, shareholders, clients, developers. In my post on FPT 2.0 I did not mention CEO blogging for risky reason, but if FPT management wants to join blogosphere they should create a position of CBO (...

Apple shares iPhone news with shareholders
2008-03-05 17:40:00 Apple's shareholders gathered in Cupertino Tuesday for the company's meeting, and while Comrades Moren and Cohen have written accounts and descriptions elsewhere on the Macworld Galaxy of Web Sites, it's probably worth calling out a few iPhone-related items for your delectation. Specifically: • Apple still expects to sell 10 million iPhones before the year is out, sticking to the goal Steve Jobs first set after pulling the phone out of his pocket at the 2007 Macworld Expo. MarketWatch quotes the Apple CEO saying, "There are plans in place to achieve our 10 million iPhone goal" during the Q&A session with shareholders. How's Apple going to pull that off? Forbes.com's Brian Caulfield has a few ideas, which can be boiled down to the release of a 3G iPhone and Apple's expansion into Asia. • Speaking of the last point, Apple reiterated plans to bring the phone to Asia in 2008, though executives declined the opportunity to say anything definitive about China. "We will en...
