Claman on Call: Yahoo Surprises Wall Street with 3Q Beat

Yahoo (NASDAQ:YHOO) surprised Wall Street with better-than-expected third quarter results, beating estimates for both revenue and earnings per share. Yahoo also saw a 17% increase in the price-per-click, but the number of paid clicks was flat compared to the previous year. The company says it's well positioned for improved performance in 2015.

Taking a look at Yahoo stock: After posting an intraday gain of more than 2%, the stock tacked on another three percentage points in after hours action. Longtime Yahoo analyst and S&P Capital IQ Senior Director Scott Kessler told FBN that there's plenty of juice left in Yahoo. He also said Marissa Mayer is probably number four on his top reasons for liking the stock.
