Here's how much Yahoo is really worth. If you've been paying attention at all to Yahoo, one thing you may have heard (repeatedly) is that the company's core businesses â Yahoo Finance, Sports, News, mail, etc. â are worth less than $0. That's because Yahoo owns a 15% stake in Alibaba. At today's market cap, that's ~$32 billion.
The poverty rate increased for children younger than 18 (from 20.7 percent in 2009 to 22.0 percent in 2010) and people 18 to 64 (from 12.9 percent in 2009 to 13.7 percent in 2010), while it was not statistically different for people 65 and older (9.0 percent).
The True US Poverty Rate Is 4.5%, Not 14.5%. The official US poverty number is 14.5%. Thatâs the percentage of the population that are below the official poverty line. However, thatâs not actually as useful a number as many seem to think that it is. Thereâs a number of strangenesses about how that number is worked out and it might well be more accurate to say that the US poverty number is 4.5%.
