A guest post on Valleywag says that 66% of the Yahoo Finance team has deserted, leaving for other companies and leaving Yahoo in a bind.

Granted, we are talking four people of a six person team, but the exodux isn't good for Yahoo, which was earning major big bucks with the product.
Remember how Yahoo's Q2 earnings plummeted? They said it was slumping advertising from online finance (plus automotive). Remember that Nielsen NetRatings gives Yahoo 54% of all online financial services advertising in the US. That's over half the entire category, folks. Oooooooooooooohhhhhhh!
Yeah, that's a cash cow, falling apart as the Google machine sharpens its swords. On the other hand, knowing how important Finance is to Yahoo, you could probably negotiate a good salary to take one of those open spots. Just search HotJobs.
