Meritocracy is perhaps the last word a government would like to hear that practice nepotism, cronyism or racism policies.

StockTube has been bashing Yahoo Inc. (Nasdaq: YHOO, stock) whenever the opportunity presents itself in favor of Google Inc. (Nasdaq: GOOG, stock).

Google Inc. might have breached the $600 level and currently floating comfortably above this level but the stock’s vulnerability has increased with the current market pulses.
