Dan Loeb Quits Yahoo Board After Making A Fortune

Daniel Dan Loeb

A year after joining the Yahoo board and pushing it to hire Marissa Mayer as CEO, directors Dan Loeb, Michael Wolf, and Harry Wilson are resigning at the end of this month.
Loeb's hedge fund, Third Point, is also selling 40 million shares of Yahoo back to Yahoo.
Third Point will hang onto another 20 million shares, a stake representing less than 2% of Yahoo stock.
The resignations mark the end of an incredibly triumphant story for Loeb.
Loeb, Wolf and Wilson joined the Yahoo board in May 2012 after Third Point settled a long proxy fight against Yahoo's previous board of directors.
