apple stocks had a hit after the universal buy out rumors, this is probably market confidence because of the recent 100,000+ ipod orders and 1 million songs sold- thats a large amount of revenue for apple! awsome!
Yep, the dip is real alright. If memory serves correctly I believe apple got up to a little over 70 bucks a share before splitting to somewhere around 30. It seemed to all go downhill from there.
