I was specifically asking what successful bets she made as CEO and I don't see anything in your answer pointing them out.

Saying her bets won because she found a buyer is like inferring you got some correct answers because you passed a test. It doesn't answer which questions (if any) were actually answered correctly.

It's entirely possible the market had no appetite for Yahoo prior to her becoming CEO, she mismanaged the company but not enough for it to implode under her watch, and the market changed its mind to it in 2016/2017.
