Its fundamental market mechanics in action - buy on rumors, sell on news

Earnings were $1.19 per share instead of first call's estimate of $1.28. Google says 'seasonal slowdowns'.

As a result google's forward looking estimates for the year 2056 are $12 million instead of the projected $283 billion.

LOL at slight change in estimates.

This is why I stick with mutual funds. Less potential profit but tremendously lower risk.
