A left-for-dead technology stock could be starting a major long-term breakout - YHOO

Something crazy is going on in the tech space. Maybe it is Marissa Mayer, or maybe just the relief of uncertainty, but Yahoo, $YHOO, looks like a long term buy. Earlier this year many jumped on board when Marissa Mayer took over as CEO. The daily chart below shows that action. Technically the break over 16.40 triggered a buy signal with a target on the break of the wedge higher at

18.70. Now solidly on the path to that target a pullout to the bigger monthly picture is starting to look very juicy. This monthly view shows a push through the 23.6% Fibonacci level at 17.09 and now a test of resistance coming at 18.20 at the top of an ascending triangle. A push through carries a target on the pattern break to 24.80. That is a big move. Achieving that target would put it squarely in the middle of the 38.2% and 50% Fibonacci levels retracing back to the move off of the 2006 high, basically bringing the 26.22 level into play as well.
