Absolutely. He should step down as CEO, but selling is another matter. He has caused a tremendous amount of perceptual damage that is going to take a very long time to repair. He took the company as far as he is capable and already should have handed over the reins to a new leader with fresh ideas. This zigzagging with selling or entering into a joint venture illustrates is uncertainty about where to take the business next.

I think regardless of his degree of fault it really is time for him to go.

We definitely believe he should stay on. He is a credit to his company even if his decisions are not always right.

I don’t know. Who would be the best replacement for him? Fair enough, we all make mistakes but its all in the past now and they need to concentrate on their future.

This is not just about the share price falling, this should be about his failure to inspire. He seems to have lost all hope for his company - and that's when you know its time to move on. SoLinkable's last blog post..Blizzard pummels South Dakota, stranding motorists

Steve at least had something substantial to fall back on. Yahoo seems like a dead horse to me!

Well he managed to bring Yahoo this far from start, so he’s the most well experienced and knowledgeable person with the Yahoo! product. As much as he might seem to be losing his grip now, he’s also the one person who can turn it around.

So it’s quite a tricky one

If Yahoo! is still as impressive as Yang says it is, the company should just put itself up for sale on its own auction site. Cris Cohen's last blog post..Post Election Dress Analysis

i THINK YANG should step down, and retired … or maybe he should build new start-up .. I don’t think he will … Yahoo is his kingdom and he is the king ..

Yang was played and it appears he had virtually no executives to rely on. Surely, he should do the honourable thing and step down but the last straw, the Google deal, I don't believe it can held against him entirely.

Jerry should step down if he wants his company to “survive” to what HE did.

If Yang had any honor he would have resigned a long time ago. He seems to forget that YHOO ceased being “his baby” a long time ago when he accepted the billions of dollars that came along with going public. From that moment on his obligation was to his shareholders, not his egominical desire to be a stand alone company. He spent $70m on advisors to keep FIFTY BILLION DOLLARS out of our hands, he adopted a draconian posion pill in terms of severance plans and fought Carl Icahn tooth and nail. Yang should have been gone a long time ago.

You cannot blame the entire thing on Yang, but just as in college football, the coach hires the entire staff and has to take the blame if all the parts are not work as they should. It's tough to say though... go green's last blog post..Green Renewable Energy Certificates
