10 Controversial Stocks


2. Yahoo

Sector: Internet

52 Week Stock Performance: -7.3 Percent

We all are more than aware of the turmoil being faced by Yahoo in its top management, be it die to Carol Bartz leaving the firm or Tim Morse coming under intense scrutiny. Either way, Yahoo has seen its share of dark days after Jerry Yang was off the board. It is even facing hostility from shareholders due to these controversies.

Bear Case: As Yahoo is losing more and more of it market share to Google and Bing, its stock values are coming down. Moreover, its sales figure is also being hit in the process. It will have to maintain a stable management to regain its position.
