This is the beginning of Year Two for Yahoo (NASDAQ: YHOO ) CEO Carol Bartz, and for investors, it’s hopefully the year the onetime most valuable Web businesses in the world stops “recovering” and begins growing again. Following a quarterly earnings report that offered up a disappointing first-quarter revenue forecast, the conference call focus was on the positive from both Bartz and finance chief Tim Morse, who said revenue should return to year-on-year growth come the back half of 2011. It certainly seems like that may happen. Yahoo’s display advertising sales were up 16% — offsetting a 18% plunge in search revenue — meaning that part of the business is, if not healthy, surviving. Yahoo clearly is clearly still ill, which wasn’t lost on investors, who pushed the stock 3% lower on Wednesday to levels not seen for three months. On Tuesday, the company said it had laid off 1% of its 14,000-strong staff, which came after mid-December layoffs of nearly 700 employees. Yahoo needs a whole lot more than a 16% increase in display ad sales to recover its ailing advertising business as a whole. It still only controls a 16% market share of an advertising business owned by Google (NASDAQ: GOOG ), and beating out AOL (NYSE: AOL ) doesn’t count as a win. How can Yahoo! turn it all around? How can Yahoo return to profit growth that doesn’t rely on firing people? How does it rehabilitate what’s seen as an archaic brand? Bartz sang the same tune during the earnings call she has since she took over the company — Yahoo! needs a “unified purpose.” Rather than buzzwords, here are three specific ways Yahoo could recover that purpose in 2011. Buy or Partner With Groupon While Yahoo spent most of 2010 flailing about, starting a number of different social networking initiatives from integrating Facebook and Twitter tools into Yahoo.com to starting up a new Web portal with Starbucks (NASDAQ: SBUX ), its most promising plan fell through. The company was reportedly in a long bidding war with Google to acquire the online daily deals business Groupon. Yahoo’s bidding reportedly peaked at $3 billion, while Google went up to $6 billion by December. Groupon turned down both and went on to raise $1 billion in private investment in December alone. Even though Yahoo was rebuffed, it should either try to find the capital to make Groupon an offer it can’t refuse, or propose a partnership. Groupon’s Web coupon business is on the verge of a boom, and with Google moving to build its own service, teaming with an established success like Groupon would be a boon to Yahoo, strengthening its identity as an online service business and its display ad sales. Buy AOL One way Yahoo could improve its chances for growth would be to eliminate the competitor with which it’s been fighting for scraps during the past five years. AOL and Yahoo have been plagued by the same problems since Google’s astronomical rise in the middle of last decade. They are both businesses mired by identities and service strategies stuck in the late 1990s, with suites of Web services like email and content pages like sports and games that are simply outdone by competitors. A merger or buyout would improve both companies’ chances of staving off Google and Facebook in the display advertising business, while hopefully allowing them to consolidate and refocus their mutual services. Sell the Search Tools It’s time to give up the search-engine ghost. Its technology is outdated, and is seen by the public as a nostalgia piece more than a functional tool. Yahoo could get itself a nice influx of capital if it finally sold off its search tools entirely to Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT ) — the logical evolution of the deal the two kicked off in 2009 to license Yahoo’s search tools for the Bing service. Under that deal, Yahoo took over sales duties for Microsoft’s advertising business. If Microsoft took over Yahoo’s search tools from them, it could sweeten the deal by handing over its weak advertising business and give Yahoo a bump in display advertising market share. At the time of publication, Anthony John Agnello did not own a position in any of the stocks named here.

However, Seneca came out with an open letter to shareholders on Friday, saying that Icahn's offer is at the WRONG PRICE at the WRONG TIME for the WRONG Reasons. After, Seneca Capital urged shareholders of the company to not tender their shares to Carl Icahn's, some of the analysts had speculated that Icahn might sweeten his offer.

Stock dividend information is crucial to investors of all strategies. The stock market hasn't returned a single red cent in over twelve years as measured by the S&P 500. Twelve years is a long time to go without earning a return on your investment, particularly if you are close to retirement. But investors who have relied on high yield dividend stocks and ETFs have at least been rewarded with the payouts from their portfolios via quarterly disbursements. With the boom years of the 1980s and 1990s now a distant memory, it is not shocking to see investors losing faith in the cult of capital gains and gravitating instead to dividend-paying stocks and ETFs. In a world in which paper gains can be ephemeral, it's good to be paid in cold, hard cash. Today, we have our choice of a host of dividend focused ETFs — so many, in fact, that it can be daunting to choose. Though all claim dividends as the central piece of their investment mandate, there are significant differences between strategies that investors should understand. In this article, I'm going to pick apart some of those differences. Dividend ETFs – Three Strategies There are already well over a dozen dividend ETFs that focus on the U.S. market, and I included the most popular in the chartbelow. Each can be grouped into one of three major categories: High dividend yield High dividend growth rate Dividend weighting The first category is what most investors immediately think of when they hear "dividend investing." The primary focus is on high current income with capital gains as a distant second. This is good, old-fashioned "widows and orphans" investing and is the most conservative of the three strategies. The iShares Dow Jones U.S. Select Dividend ETF (NYSE: DVY ) is the oldest dividend-focused ETF and is the only one to follow a pure high-yield strategy. The fund represents America's top stocks by dividend yield, selected annually. To weed out those at risk of cutting their dividend, companies must have a positive five-year dividend per share growth rate and a dividend payout ratio of no more than 60% of earnings. The stocks that qualify are then ranked by dividend yield and the top 100 are selected. The result is a solid ETF that currently yields more than the 10-year Treasury with an expense ratio and turnover that are tolerably low. The second category is based less on dividend yield and more on the growth rate of dividends. KEEP READING FOR MORE INFO…

Medicare prescription drug coverage is insurance that covers both brand-name and generic drugs at participating pharmacies. One can receive Medicare Part D coverage regardless of income, resources, health status or current prescription expenses if they are already an approved Medicare beneficiary. Two options are available for receiving the Medicare Part D prescription drug coverage. One can decide to join a Medicare prescription drug plan or one can decide to join a Medicare Advantage Plan. Americans want ot have access to Medicare Prescription drug coverage and they want their medications to be low in cost but high in effectiveness. A recent study was conducted to examine how prescription drug access and prescription cost saving measures changed after Medicare Part D was implemented. The study was titled, “Effect of Medicare Part D and Insurance type on Medicare Beneficiary Access to Prescription Medication and use of Prescription Cost-Saving Measures.” Basically, conclusions of this particular study revealed that prescription drug access and use of cost saving measures have slightly improved since the implementation of Medicare Part D. Beneficiaries should keep in mind that many patients were able to request a less expensive form of the medication they were on and receive a less expensive generic type of medication.
