Yahoo! has said no to Microsoft after the takeover bid earlier this month. The company said that Microsoft's bid undervalued it's shares, the price of which will keep rising. AOL Time Warner has put forward a proposal for a merger of AOL and Yahoo! to keep it (Yahoo!) out of Microsoft's hands.
Yahoo! shares may be almost full-priced now, the shares won't keep rising for long and there won't be many more opportunities for people to make a profit from the shares other than from the dividends.

Lara Croft's National Treasure
SCI Entertainment, the company behind the extremely successful Lara Croft: Tomb Raider films, should produce a film that combines Tomb Raider with the National Treasure films. Both films total two in number and by creating a combined third one they become intertwined and make a double trilogy that will earn both SCI and Disney substantial revenues from the film and the inevitable games.
From a successful collaberation will come more opportunities for both companies to make more money. Shares in SCI are worth buying just because of the value of their brands, ie Lara Croft:Tomb Raider and Kane & Lynch.

The Battle for ITV
The newspapers are all adding their pennys worth into the debate over whether Rupert Murdoch's BSB should have been allowed to keep the 17% stake in ITV or if they should have just never been allowed to go above 7%.
It seems our own Sir Richard Branson is buying up ITV shares and may be taking it over. Sir Richard is an excellent businessman who has built up one of the best known brands from nothing, he started selling records when he was 17! Definitely a great role model for budding entrepeneurs.
If Sir Richard was successful in obtaining ITV then the Virgin Group would be one of Britain's most successful media conglomerates with interests in tv, radio, broadband and publishing. To add more value to the Group I think he needs to launch a Social Networking site, he could give access to films and tv programmes to people, they could also let him know what they think of his products/services.
ITV and Virgin are good buys, buy up shares because they are going to keep rising.
