    A day after it was reported that a Yahoo exec stated her company is working on two "significant" acquisitions, Yelp (YELP +5.6%) is posting big gains on above-average volume. It probably doesn't hurt that it's a Friday and nearly a quarter of the float is shorted.  Yahoo reportedly made a ~$750M offer for Yelp back in 2009, and has been frequently named as a potential Yahoo target over the last year. OpenTable (OPEN +1.4%), a company Yahoo was reportedly pitched on by bankers last year, is up more modestly.
