Alex Sherman, reporting for CNBC, writes:

GoPro has hired J.P. Morgan Chase to help it seek a potential sale, according to people familiar with the matter.

J.P. Morgan helped underwrite GoPro’s initial public offering in 2014. No sale is assured, said the people, who asked not to be named because the discussions are private. It’s unclear if there is an interested buyer for the company.

This scoop comes right on the heels of its decision to quit the drone business and to lower the price of its Hero6 Action Camera by $100, in an effort to turn profitable.

Michael Zhang from PetaPixel referencing a WSJ report:

[…] Yahoo sent out letters to potential buyers in recent days, asking that they submit bids over the next two weeks for Yahoo’s businesses and holdings.

There are reportedly about 40 companies interested in snatching up part or all of Yahoo. Potential buyers include Verizon, Time, Microsoft, IAC/InterActiveCorp, private equity firms, and more. Yahoo originally acquired Flickr back in 2005 for around $25 million.

Yahoo has completely botched Flickr in recent times. They’ve made some crazy stupid decisions in the past, including making the Desktop Auto Uploadr a Pro feature.
