I haven't looked into the details but I would assume that the bulk of most of these deals are for Yahoo Stock. Yahoo still has a market cap (Total Value) of $30bn or so, so plenty of value to dilute!

So its now Yahuflukr?
so much cash to throw around while national debts are rising so fast, strange, but fortunate for them!
