We were all wondering what today would look like for Microsoft and for Yahoo now that the deal is a dead issue. While there have been some outrageous things said in the press, the true test is how the companies ride this week out as investors vote on the idea with their shares of stock.

This snapshot of stock prices on pre-market action does not bode well for Yahoo, but surprisingly Microsoft is getting some traction this morning with their stock price. This is a good thing, as Microsoft stock has been mired in the dull drums for a while.

With any luck, Microsoft will have a great day, but that is also dependent upon many other things this morning, with almost no reporting today outside of the ISM report, The drama from Microsoft and Yahoo will probably be the big market mover of the day, unless something else bigger comes up.
