Yahoo is a publicly-traded company listed on the NASDAQ stock exchange under the ticker symbol YHOO. According to Yahoo finance, "The company was founded by David Filo and Jerry Yang in 1994. Yahoo! is headquartered in Sunnyvale, California."

I don't think so.
Actually, Yahoo owns a chunk of Google stock because of an early settlement when Google was found to be infringing on Yahoo's patents.

Google does not own Yahoo. The OP's statement is remarkably ill-informed even by our standards.

lol. So-have I been the victim of an april fool many years ago? I'm sure there was a big thing about them being happy that google kept on the old news groups going back years, and would still have a separate yahoo address etc. when they could have just shut it all down. It was ever since then it says 'yahoo, powered by google' when you search for something on there.
Was that really all a big april fool? Must have been around 2002 maybe?
